Abstract
A traction control system for limiting the slip of a driven wheel determines an excessive spinning condition of the wheel in response to an excess driving torque applied from the vehicle engine. If the vehicle speed is less than a predetermined value, a braking force is applied to the wheel that is a predetermined function of the spin ratio of the wheel and when the vehicle speed is greater than the predetermined value, a braking force is applied to the wheel that is a predetermined function of the difference between the driven wheel speed and the vehicle speed.
