Abstract
The invention provides a roll-over suppressing control apparatus for a vehicle which can make a decision of a start of roll suppressing control appropriately in response to the degree of the possibility of turning over on its side of the vehicle. The roll-over suppressing control apparatus includes a braking mechanism for braking wheels of the vehicle, a roll rate sensor for detecting a roll rate of the vehicle, and a roll-over suppressing control section for controlling the braking mechanism so that, if the roll rate detected upon turning of the vehicle becomes equal to or higher than a control starting threshold value, then it is decided that the vehicle is in an excessively rolling state and braking force is applied to the wheels. The control starting threshold value is set to different values depending upon different types of turning of the vehicle (depending upon whether the turning is sudden steering back turning, moderate steering back turning or one-directional turning).
