A braking assist method for a vehicle is described and includes receiving a brake switch signal indicative of a state of a mechanical brake actuation system; receiving a motor speed signal indicative of a speed of a traction motor, the traction motor for applying rotational torque to a wheel of the vehicle; determining from changes in a value of the received motor speed signal over time a rate of change of the traction motor speed; and, based on a determination that the mechanical brake actuation system is in an on state and that the rate of change of the traction motor speed is decreasing, commanding the traction motor to apply a supplemental braking torque to the wheel.
