Is it legal to drive with abs light on?

Generally not recommended. The ABS light means that there's something wrong with the ABS system - which may be anything from a major malfunction of the ABS system to something as simple as a bad sensor. ABS brake systems must revert to normal operation in the event of an ABS system malfunction, which means you'll still have brakes, but the ABS system won't prevent lockup and skidding. Before your vehicle can pass inspection, the problem will have to be fixed.
