Original Abstract Submitted
A vehicle braking control apparatus includes a controller and a determiner. The controller is configured to switch between a braking-force generating control and a braking-force release control. The controller causes a braking device mounted on a vehicle to generate a braking force in the braking-force generating control and causes the braking device to release the generated braking force in the braking-force release control. The determiner is configured to determine whether an unstable-behavior with rotation around a rotation axis along a vertical direction occurs or not in the vehicle based on a determination-value determined by a state occurred in the vehicle and a state of a road surface with which wheels of the vehicle are in contact. The controller causes the braking device to generate the braking force by executing the braking-force generating control when the determiner determines that the unstable-behavior occurs.
