Correct answer
No; maintain pressure with ABS, and modulate it without ABS if wheels lock.
No. With working ABS, brake firmly and maintain pressure even if the pedal vibrates; do not pump it. Without ABS, seek maximum braking without wheel lock, reducing pressure if lock occurs to restore rotation and control. Do not prescribe always flooring the brake without ABS and then automatically easing off. In a manual car, also press the clutch during emergency braking; an automatic has no clutch pedal. ABS does not guarantee the shortest distance on every surface or replace anticipation.
