1. A traction control system for an automotive vehicle, comprising:

  • a traction reducing means for reducing traction created through at least one driven wheel, said traction reducing means being operated during an acceleration-slip control;

    an acceleration-slip detecting means for monitoring an acceleration-slip state of said at least one driven wheel;

    a turning degree deriving means for deriving a degree of turn of the vehicle;

    a change-rate derivation means for deriving a rate of change in said turning degree; and

    a driving-torque recovery control means for increasingly compensating a recovery amount of driving torque created by said at least one driven wheel in accordance with a decrease in the turning degree of the vehicle, during the acceleration-slip control when said recovery control means determines on the basis of the rate of change in the turning degree that the vehicle is in a transient state from turning to straight-ahead driving.
