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
The car 's anti-lock braking system helped prevent skidding when I had to stop suddenly.
Thanks to the ABS, I was able to steer around the obstacle without losing control.
My friend ’s car has an anti-lock braking system, which makes driving in the rain much safer.
