A vehicle includes a plurality of axles including front and rear axles on which wheels are mounted at opposite ends thereof, wheel brakes mounted to the wheels, wheel speed detectors for detecting wheel speeds of the wheels, actuators for operating the wheel brakes, and a friction coefficient determining device for determining a friction coefficient of a travel road surface based on detection values detected by the wheel speed detectors. When each of the wheels is braked, the operations of the actuators are controlled such that braking forces are generated only in the wheel brakes in one of the axles at least at an initial stage of the braking, and the determination of the friction coefficient by the friction coefficient determining device is carried out at the initial stage. Thus, the determination of the friction coefficient by the friction coefficient determining device is more facilitated.
