A control system for stabilizing the rolling of a vehicle, having control elements arranged between vehicle wheel carriers or wheel suspension members and the vehicle body to generate forces approximately in a vertical direction. The control system is activated only when threshold values for the lateral acceleration of the vehicle and for the steering wheel turning angle are exceeded. When the control system is activated, the control elements generate a rolling moment at the vehicle body counteracting the rolling motions caused by driving conditions and at first completely, or for the most part, only at the rear wheel axle. In a transition period, which depends on vehicle parameters, the control system will then change the rolling moment distribution between the front wheel axle and the rear wheel axle to a given fixed rolling moment distribution.
