BDifficulty 2/5

In a car with functioning ABS, how should the brake be applied during an emergency stop?

Correct answer

Press firmly and maintain pressure without pumping.

Firmly and with sustained pressure, without pumping the pedal or releasing it because of normal ABS vibration. The system modulates pressure to prevent wheel lock and help retain steering capability. It does not guarantee preventing a crash or a fixed stopping distance; watch the trajectory and follow manufacturer instructions.
