Re: Anti-lock brake light is coming on. 200 1992

What's wrong with that? They don't shorten the distance to stop but allow you to steer out of harms way. There is a big misconception that abs shortens the distance to stop and that's why there are so many accidents with its use and insurance companies that I know of don't give a discount for it anymore. I have used it successfully twice on wet roads. In the panic to stop most people freeze up and can't steer.
