Why this is the answer
The correct answer in the official bank: Stop driving immediately and ensure that the vehicle is towed to a garage and checked there.
The braking system is a vital safety system, and any fault in it can suddenly get worse and leave you unable to stop in time. So you must stop driving immediately in a safe place and have the vehicle towed to a garage for inspection. The parking brake is not meant for normal braking while driving, and ABS does not replace working brakes; it only prevents the wheels from locking.
