Does the Traction Control on 05-07 Mustangs only monitor the rear wheels? The computer doesn't monitor the wheel spins on front wheels, right?

theres sensors in front and back that see if rears are spinning faster than the fronts.

i could be wrong but i think the T/C monitors the rear wheels and compensates slippage by slowing down the engine and applying brakes as needed to regain traction. im sure someone else will chime in also.
