Best Practice: ABS

Learn The Basics Of ABS

ABS is an abbreviation for Anti-lock Braking System. It works with the regular brakes on your vehicle and keeps your brakes from locking up when used in an emergency situation. This helps to prevent your vehicle from skidding in the event of rapid braking, especially on wet or slippery roads.

However, many drivers do not benefit from ABS because the correct techniques for using it are almost the complete opposite of the techniques taught about emergency braking in cars.

ABS can be a positive safety feature on vehicles, but only if used correctly.
