Abstract
When the driving force between a driven wheel of a wheel and the surface on which the vehicle is travelling exceeds the available traction, wheel slippage may occur. Wheel slippage may result in a loss of control of the vehicle. The present disclosure may facilitate the control of drive power sent to a driven wheel of a vehicle from consideration of a torque setting and a speed of the vehicle.
