Question 1702 in the bank

An efficient Braking System with ABS:

  1. How braking cancels the ABS.
  2. Hard braking will cut out the engine.
  3. Hard braking causes stopping on the spot.
  4. Correct answer: Hard braking causes vibrations and noise.

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: Hard braking causes vibrations and noise.

ABS prevents the wheels from locking during hard braking by rapidly releasing and reapplying the brakes many times per second. You feel this as vibration in the brake pedal and hear it as noise, which is completely normal. Keep pressing firmly and do not let go. ABS does not switch itself off, stop the engine or stop the car on the spot. It keeps you able to steer while braking.
