How should you use anti-lock brakes when you need to stop in an emergency?

Keep pumping the footbrake to prevent skidding
Brake normally but grip the steering wheel tightly
Brake promptly and firmly until you've stopped
Apply the parking brake to reduce the stopping distance

Explanation

Answer-C. If you have ABS and need to stop in an emergency, keep your foot firmly on the brake pedal until the vehicle has stopped. When the ABS operates, you may hear a grating sound and feel vibration through the brake pedal. This is normal and you should maintain pressure on the brake pedal until the vehicle stops.
