Abstract

An angular velocity detection device is provided for detecting an angular velocity about a single axis tilted in a longitudinal direction of a vehicle to a normal axis thereof. An actual motion state variable of the vehicle is calculated on the basis of the detected angular velocity. At least one of the braking force and driving force applied to a vehicle is controlled to stabilize a yawing motion and a rolling motion of the vehicle, on the basis of a motion state variable deviation between a desired motion state variable and the actual motion state variable, e.g., a deviation between a yaw velocity and a roll velocity of the vehicle.
