An automotive vehicle stability control system determined which is a main cause of a change in a change rate of a yaw rate difference of an actual yaw rate from a target yaw rate between a change in the actual yaw rate and a change in the target yaw rate when the change rate of the yaw rate difference exceeds a specified change rate, increase threshold slip angle for starting braking control based on slip angle following the driver's intention when the main cause is the change in the actual yaw rate and increases an upper limit of target slip angle so as to allow the target slip angle to be increased according to a driver's steering operation when the slip angle preferential braking control takes place.
