A failure detection and correction function which is able to detect a failure of an automatic braking system, and provide a corrected action. The failure detection and correction function is independent of the automatic braking function. The failure detection and correction function uses object coordinates and the speed of the vehicle to determine the collision risk, and then calculates a desired deceleration if there is imminent collision. The function uses desired deceleration to compare to a deceleration request from automatic braking function to determine if there is a failure. The failure detection and correction function takes corrected action to avoid the collision if the automatic braking function has failed.

A controller and a control method capable of appropriately stabilizing behavior of a rear wheel of a straddle-type vehicle. In the controller and the control method, a slip amount of a wheel of a straddle-type vehicle is controlled to be equal to or smaller than an allowable slip amount. In the case where it is determined that behavior of a rear wheel of the straddle-type vehicle is in an unstable state on the basis of a slip angle of the straddle-type vehicle, stabilization control is executed to reduce the allowable slip amount of the rear wheel to be smaller than the allowable slip amount of the rear wheel at the time when it is determined that the behavior of the rear wheel is in the stable state.

A device and a method for controlling collision avoidance of a trailer vehicle in platooning include a jackknife induction determination module or operation that determines whether to execute jackknife induction control in a leading vehicle when an emergency braking situation occurs during platooning of the trailer vehicle. The device and method also include a jackknife induction control module or operation that provides an additional braking distance of a following vehicle at the rear of a tractor by inducing pivoting of a trailer while controlling the tractor and trailer of the leading vehicle, respectively, to allow a jackknife phenomenon to occur. Stability of the platooning is improved by reducing a possibility of the occurrence of a collision accident by the following vehicle even during emergency braking.
