Abstract

A method and an apparatus are described for controlling the braking force distribution in a vehicle between front and rear axles, such that at least while the vehicle is traveling in a curve, the braking force at the rear wheels is established individually in such a way that the difference between the velocity of that rear wheel and a front wheel velocity assumes defined values.
