Provided is a vehicle behavior control apparatus which can accurately determine normal conditions of a yaw rate detection apparatus. A normality detector (26) includes a steering angle yaw rate calculator (26A) calculating a steering angle yaw rate (Ys) based on output values of a steering angle detector (a steering angle sensor 92); a first difference calculator (26B) calculating a first difference (D1) which is a difference between the steering angle yaw rate (Ys) and an actual yaw rate (Y); a lateral G yaw rate calculator (26C) calculating a lateral G yaw rate (Yg) based on output values of a lateral accelerated speed detector (a lateral accelerated speed sensor 93); a second difference calculator (26D) calculating a second difference (D2) which is a difference between the lateral G yaw rate (Yg) and the actual yaw rate (Y); and a normality determination section (26E)determining that the yaw rate detector is in a normal state when the first difference (D1) falls within a first predetermined value (C1) and
