Abstract
A traction control system includes means for detecting a vehicle driving condition and disabling traction control for reducing driving torque distributed to vehicular driven wheels for avoiding wheel slippage when a predetermined vehicle driving condition is detected. In the practical control, a vehicle speed is taken as a traction control enabling/disabling criterion for disabling control while the vehicle speed is lower than a given criterion.
