A trailer backup assist system includes a sensor that measures a hitch angle between a vehicle and a trailer. A steering system controls a steering angle of the vehicle between physical angle limits. A controller of the trailer backup assist system generates adaptive angle limits based on a maximum hitch angle rate and generates a steering command within the physical and adaptive angle limits for the vehicle to guide the trailer on a desired curvature.
