Florida Class E Drivers License Practice Test

Explanation When emergency braking, conventional brakes and anti-lock brakes (ABS) operate differently. Conventional brakes require the driver to pump the brakes in order to prevent the wheels from locking up, while ABS automatically pumps the brakes for the driver, increasing the stopping power of the vehicle. B is incorrect because ABS actually stop faster than conventional brakes due to their ability to prevent wheel lockup. C is incorrect because both types of brakes can be used for a variety of driving speeds. D is incorrect because conventional brakes do not require constant pumping, but instead require firm and continuous pressure to maintain control. ABS do not require pumping at all.
