Vehicle Dynamics Control (VDC) System: General

The vehicle dynamics control (VDC) system is a driver assist system which enhances vehicle's running stability by utilizing the anti-lock brake system (ABS) and traction control system (TCS) functions in combination with its own function which reduces sudden changes in vehicle behavior that are likely to occur when traveling on a slippery road or quickly avoiding an obstacle on the road.
