According to one embodiment, for example, when it is determined that a certain condition has been satisfied while first antilock control is being executed, a controller of a brake control apparatus executes second antilock control by opening and closing a solenoid valve with a motor stopped so that brake fluid of the wheel cylinder is caused to flow into a reservoir, the second antilock control including a second pressure reduction mode, the second pressure reduction mode reducing a pressure of a wheel cylinder while substantially equilibrating the pressure of the wheel cylinder and a pressure of the reservoir at a certain pressure or larger, the certain pressure being larger than zero.
