ABSTRACT:
A vehicle turn speed control and method therefor having an engine control unit which receives input from at least one speed sensor and at least one angle sensor, calculates the vehicle turn radius, calculates the ratio of the vehicle speed divided by the vehicle turn radius, compares the ratio of the vehicle speed divided by the turn radius with a reference value and outputs a signal to a brake motor which is connected to the vehicle brakes and which will apply the brakes when the calculated ratio of vehicle speed to turn radius exceeds the reference ratio of turn speed.
