Correct answer
Continue braking fully.
ABS is intended to prevent the wheels from locking during sudden braking. It acts by automatically correcting driver error and regulating the braking power of each wheel according to its grip. This allows the vehicle's path to be controlled and makes maximum use of braking power. During emergency braking, press the brake pedal and clutch pedal fully to prevent the engine from stopping and the ABS from ceasing to operate.
