When a wheel locks, the vehicle skids on the asphalt, and the driver cannot change its direction. This has been one of the main causes of accidents in older vehicles.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3937\" data-end=\"4177\">The ABS system is designed to prevent this very problem. During hard braking, this system activates the brakes with rapid, repeated pulses instead of locking the wheels. In fact, the wheels are rapidly \u201cbrake\u2013release\u2013brake\u2013release\u201d without the driver noticing.
