Introduction of anti lock brake system?

The Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) is a safety feature in automobiles that prevents wheel lockup during braking. Wheel lockup occurs when a wheel stops rotating completely while braking, causing loss of steering control and potentially leading to a skid. ABS uses sensors and a computer to modulate brake pressure, preventing this lockup and allowing the driver to maintain steering control even during hard braking. This significantly improves vehicle stability and reduces stopping distances on many surfaces, particularly slippery ones like snow, ice, or wet roads. Essentially, ABS helps drivers maintain control of their vehicle in emergency braking situations.
