This document reviews the literature on the control strategies drivers execute in emergency situations. Two possible strategies exist: braking to control speed and steering to control lateral position. Eleven items relevant to the topic of braking to control speed and steering to control lateral position. Eleven items relevant to the topic of braking versus steering are summarized in tabular form. Abstracts or summaries of these studies are also contained in this document. In general, drivers are more likely to brake than to steer, while the optimal maneuver is more frequently steering alone, or steering combined with braking, rather than braking alone. Factors that may affect a driver's choice are discussed. Areas in which this research can be extended are also examined. Research on strategies concerning lateral and speed control can potentially be applied to Intelligent Vehicle Highway System (IVHS) technologies. By using insights about drivers' strengths and weaknesses in driving tasks, active control of the vehicle could assist drivers in choosing the optimal strategy.
