Zusammenfassung:Tire initiated vehicle control system (110). The vehicles (100) have components including a power train (140), a suspension system (180), a steering mechanism (160), a plurality of wheel brake mechanisms (130), one wheel brake mechanism (130) being at each wheel position (104a, 104b, 104c, 104d) location, a fuel or vehicle speed throttle (144) with or without a cruise control system, the vehicle control system (110) has a tire pressure detection device (120) and a control means (200), which preferably has a computer (208) for receiving data from the tire pressure detection device (120). The control means (200) processes the received tire pressure data and upon a preset pressure or rate of change value in tire pressure the control means (208) directs a change in response rates of one or more of the above listed vehicle components.
