That will cause you to lose control, since braking will be uneven. Take foot OFF the gas, brake gradually, slow WAY down, ease back unto pavement.

Can you drive a vehicle if the anti lock brakes go out?

yes, the only purpose of the anti-lock system is to keep the wheels from locking up when you slam on the brakes. The brakes them selves function as usual. You will just have the chance of locking your wheels up and sliding if you slam on them.


Why antilock breaking system is widely used?

I hope I understand your question. Anti-lock brakes are used to keep your brakes from locking if you slam them on. If your wheels lock, your tires will skid on the pavement. This will increase your stopping time and possibly throw your car into an uncontrollable skid since one front wheel may skid before the other. Wet pavement exacerbates the problem.

Antilock brakes are the same as conventional brakes?

An anti-lock braking system, or ABS is a safety system which prevents the wheels on a motor vehicle from locking up (or ceasing to rotate) while braking. anti lock brakes were designed so that when you do a "panic stop" or slam on your brakes, it will control your wheels so they dont slip or loose traction.

Why do keep moving forward when you slam on the brakes on your bicycle?

Because when you brake, the brakes stop the wheels from moving. But that doesn't stop the bike from moving. It means that the speed/force/velocity at which you were traveling was forceful enough to override the brakes. So basically, you're sliding.
