What is an "anti-lock braking system"?
An anti-lock braking system (ABS) is a safety feature in vehicles that helps prevent the wheels from locking up during hard braking. When the driver applies the brakes quickly, ABS automatically adjusts the brake pressure to ensure the wheels keep rotating, allowing the driver to maintain control of the vehicle. This system reduces the risk of skidding, especially on slippery or wet surfaces, and helps the driver stop the vehicle more safely. ABS is especially useful in emergency braking situations, providing better stability and shorter stopping distances.
Example
