          Application No. 08/832,960                                                  


          unit and a solenoid actuating circuit, for processing the                   
          wheel speed signals so as to determine whether the front and                
          rear wheels are exhibiting a tendency to enter a locked state               
          or recovering from a locked state, and for outputting pressure              
          control signals for selectively reducing, maintaining, and                  
          increasing a braking pressure applied to the wheels; and a                  
          fluid pressure control unit, including solenoids (SL -SL ) for              
                                                              1   4                   
          controlling the braking pressure applied to the right front                 
          and left front wheels in accordance with the pressure control               
          signals and solenoids (SL -SL ) for controlling the braking                 
                                   5   8                                              
          pressure applied to the right rear and left rear wheels in                  
          accordance with the pressure control signals.  The central                  
          processing unit is programed to select one of a first control               
          mode in which the pressure control signals for selectively                  
          reducing, maintaining, and increasing a braking pressure                    
          applied to the right front and left front wheels are                        
          determined independently from one another, and a second                     
          control mode in which the pressure control signals for the                  
          right front and left front wheels are determined based on a
