In a system and a method of stabilizing a vehicle combination of a towing vehicle and a trailer or a semi-trailer, wherein a trailer brake system on the trailer or semi-trailer which may be operated together with the a vehicle brake system on the towing vehicle as well as independent from said vehicle brake system, the system and method includes: detecting at least one signal corresponding to at least one driving condition; computing the detected at least one signal corresponding to said at least one driving condition and comparing the at least one detected signal with a corresponding predetermined values representing a critical driving condition; allowing independent operation of the trailer brake system in response to a detected critical driving condition; and automatically operating the trailer brake system in response to the activation means by applying temporary braking actions on the trailer. Hereby, a proactive stabilising trailer brake system, also known as stretch-braking, is provided. |
