Message: <blockquote data-quote="zan" data-source="post: 615710" data-attributes="member: 9632">ABS (Honda used to call it ALB) is designed to reduce the chances of accident by minimising tyre lock whenever possible. The secret is to reduce the risk instead of preventing at all which is impossible.in my knowledge it was German cars that started using ABS with help from BOSCH. then Japanese makers came up with their own system. For example 1988 Sentra B13 has this Anti-skid DP valve that works by reducing pressure under sudden brake application. 1st model Mazda MPV 3.0V6 has only rear wheel ABS. ABS system evolved with time after hours of research and development. From only 2 wheels to 4 wheel ABS. From 2 channel to 3 and latest is 4 channel and 4 sensors. Early generation ABS actuator can be felt working as it creates pulsation at the brake pedal. More recent cars had managed not to pass the sensation to the driver.The secret to prevent brake locking is to brake and release a few times per second which is definitely impossible to human capabilities. And yes it does shortened the braking distance over slippery surface compare to similar non-ABS car. This had been tested and proven by professionals and car manufacturers all over the world; if it is not so, then I wonder why they still sell cars with ABS?personally speaking... I prefer cars with ABS - it make me feel more confidence. After all I am not a superhuman that can make dead people back alive. But as of time being I still stick to my car's front ventilated discs/rear drums setup. he he..</blockquote>
