A method of vehicle stability control including the steps of: a) applying a test braking pulse to a wheel on a first side of the vehicle and to a wheel on a second, opposite, side of the vehicle, the application of the test braking pulse comprising operating a brake actuator to apply a low level braking pressure to the wheel, b) measuring the rotational speed of both wheels during the test braking pulse, c) calculating a change in wheel speed during the test braking pulse for each wheel, d) calculating the difference between the change in speed of the wheel at the first side of the vehicle and the change in speed of the wheel at the second side of the vehicle, e) carrying out a stability control intervention if the said difference exceeds a predetermined threshold. |
