Introduction
ABS is now increasingly common; however few drivers have ever been given the chance to learn about its true value. ABS is considered, quite rightly, to be a valuable addition to the overall safety of both driver and vehicle but beyond this assumption it rarely warrants more thought. Advancements technologically mean that new vehicles are becoming increasingly sophisticated. Therefore the driver is able to do the more complex manoeuvres with a vehicle if the driver has been trained accordingly. They can also reduce the chances of you landing in hazardous situations if you know how to use them.
