The ABS system, or its long name Anti-lock Braking System, is a system that belongs to one of the basic elements of active vehicle safety.

This article will shed light on the ABS system, its function, and how to recognize when the system is active.

The anti-lock braking system (ABS - Anti-lock braking system) is a safety feature in motor vehicles that prevents the wheels from locking up (ceasing rotation) during braking.

ABS helps the driver overcome difficult situations and maintain traction with the road surface, especially when braking on slippery surfaces or emergency (hard) braking. The anti-lock braking system aims to improve vehicle safety by reducing the chance of skidding and loss of control.
