Question 6597
When performing an emergency stop in a vehicle equipped with ABS, you must press...
- The brake pedal all the way down and release it when you feel a vibration in it.
- The brake pedal all the way down without releasing it.
- And repeatedly release the brake pedal so that the wheels do not lock.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: The brake pedal all the way down without releasing it.
With ABS, press the brake pedal all the way down during emergency braking and do not release it until you stop. The system already prevents the wheels from locking on its own, so do not pump the pedal. If you release it or pump it, you take longer to stop. You will feel the pedal vibrate while ABS is working, which is normal.
