Anti-Lock Brakes (ABS), Towing a Trailer
Important Safety Reminders
ABS does not reduce the time or
distance it takes to stop the
vehicle; It only helps with steering
control during braking.
ABS will not prevent a skid that
results from changing direction
abruptly, such as trying to take a
corner too fast or making a sudden
lane change.
ABS cannot prevent a loss of
stability. Always steer moderately
when you are braking hard. Severe
or sharp steering wheel movement
can still cause your vehicle to veer
into oncoming traffic or off the road.
A vehicle with ABS may require a
longer distance to stop
uneven surfaces, such as gravel or
snow, than a vehicle without anti-
lock.
