Weather, Visibility & EmergenciesStandalone practice
A car without ABS has locked its wheels during hard braking. What should the driver do to regain steering control?
Correct answer: Ease off the brake so the wheels roll, then brake again gently.
Why
In a vehicle without ABS, reduce pedal pressure if the wheels lock so they can roll again, then brake under control as needed. Avoid sustained wheel lock. In a working ABS vehicle, the separate emergency procedure is firm continuous pedal pressure while steering as necessary.
