Claim 0:
1. A damper control apparatus for controlling a front damper with variable damping force at a front wheel and a rear damper with variable damping force at a rear wheel, the damper control apparatus comprising:
a road surface state detector configured to detect a road surface state in front of a vehicle;
a vehicle turn degree detector configured to detect a degree of turn of the vehicle; and
a controller configured to control the front damper provided at the front wheel and the rear damper provided at the rear wheel based on a detected value of the road surface state detector,
wherein, in response to the vehicle turn degree detector detecting a degree of turn that exceeds a predetermined turn degree threshold, the controller is configured to reduce control of the rear damper that is based on the detected value of the road surface state detector.
