AMDifficulty 3/5

In an emergency stop on a two-wheeled moped without ABS, should you apply enough braking force to stop?

Correct answer

Yes, but without locking the wheels.

Yes, increase pressure in a controlled way to obtain the strongest braking grip permits without locking the wheels. There is no universal rule to leave the controls halfway: locking depends on force, grip and braking distribution. Use the controls according to the manual and retain control. ABS technique differs; do not apply advice for a non-ABS vehicle to every vehicle.
