Apparatus (101) for controlling movement of a vehicle (202), a system (201) and vehicle (202) comprising the apparatus (101), and a method (500, 600) for controlling the movement of a vehicle (202) are disclosed. The apparatus (202) comprises processing means (102) configured to receive first signals from a receiving means (103) arranged to receive transmitted signals from a remote control device (204) indicating a requested motion of the vehicle (202). From the first signals or an additional signal received from a sensing means (104), one or more distance values indicative of a distance from a point on the vehicle (202) to an object is determined, and a maximum speed value for the vehicle (202) is determine in dependence on the one or more distance values. The processing means provides an output signal (106) for controlling speed of the vehicle (202) based on the requested motion. The output signal (106) is arranged to control the speed of the vehicle (202) to be less than or equal to the maximum speed value.
