Correct answer
It helps prevent wheel lock and retain steering ability.
It regulates braking pressure to prevent wheel lock and help retain steering ability within the available grip. It neither guarantees a trajectory nor always shortens stopping distance. In an emergency, press the brake firmly and fully and maintain pressure despite pulsation; do not pump the pedal. On a manual-transmission car, also fully depress the clutch. Pressing only the clutch does not brake the vehicle. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
