Abstract
Embodiments relate to a pedal module including an accelerator pedal; a pedal sensing unit; a pedal monitoring unit; and a control unit. The pedal monitoring unit determines whether an accelerating state of a vehicle is in an abnormal sudden acceleration state using abnormal sudden acceleration determination information transmitted from the pedal sensing unit, and transmits an accelerator pedal output signal to the control unit. The accelerator pedal output signal is based on the rotation angle of the accelerator pedal when the accelerating state of the vehicle is not in the abnormal sudden accelerating state. The accelerator pedal output signal is a controlled accelerator pedal output signal when the accelerating state of the vehicle is in the abnormal sudden accelerating state. The control unit controls the vehicle according to the accelerator pedal output signal. The abnormal sudden acceleration determination information includes information on the force applied to the accelerator pedal.
