摘要

The invention relates to a system for controlling the function of stabilizing movement of a vehicle for primary and secondary drivers, the system comprising: at least one primary key configured to be associated with the primary driver; at least one secondary key configured to be assigned to the secondary driver; an ignition key device provided on both the primary key and the secondary key and configured to generate signals regarding driver status indicating whether the driver is at least the primary driver or the secondary driver and a controller operatively associated with the ignition key device is coupled and configured to determine, based on the driver status signals, whether the driver of the vehicle is at least the primary driver or the secondary driver; to stabilize the movement of the vehicle and to selectively control the function of stabilizing the movement of the vehicle based on whether the driver is at least one of the primary driver and the secondary driver.
