Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A braking control system (12) for an automotive vehicle (10) having driven rear wheels (24) which are coupled through a coupling arrangement (34) to the front wheels (18) of the vehicle (10) so as to switch the vehicle (10) between two-wheel drive mode and four-wheel drive mode, comprises an input for receiving a signal indicative of the nature of the terrain on which the vehicle (10) is travelling and a processor configured to determine, depending on the signal, a braking force to be applied to the front wheels (18) to brake the vehicle (10) securely. The braking system comprises an output for providing a signal to the coupling arrangement (34) to apply the determined braking force to the front wheels (18).
