If this happen, then it can lead to an unexpected and sudden stop, which can be dangerous for the driver and other vehicles on the road. Since 1987 ABS has been standard equipment on all Mercedes-Benz automobiles. [26] Lincoln followed suit in 1993. [27]

If you are unsure, take your vehicle to a local garage to give you peace of mind that your car is in the best condition possible. With molybdenum being much stronger than steel, the cam can easily resist any snapping and twisting. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations. The manufacturer of your vehicle knows the best way to maintain your brakes, so it’s important to follow their maintenance guidelines. This usually means changing your brake fluid, pads, and rotors every 30,000 to 50,000 miles depending on the type of car you have and the driving conditions. Maintaining your vehicle is important in extending its life and keeping you safe. Gerald J. S. Wilde (1994). "7. Remedy by engineering?". Psyc.queensu.ca. Archived from the original on 2010-09-21 .

These studies caused the EU commission to initiate a legislative process in 2010 that was passed in 2012 and led to ABS for motorcycles above 125cm 3 becoming mandatory from 2016 onwards. Organizations like the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile and the Institute of advanced Motorists (IAM) demanded the implementation of this legislation already for 2015. [54] While the basic principle and architecture has been carried over from passenger car ABS, typical motorcycle characteristics have to be considered during the development and application processes.

ABS speed sensors Speed sensors (Encoders) A speed sensor is used to determine the acceleration or deceleration of the wheel. These sensors use a magnet and a Hall effect sensor, or a toothed wheel and an electromagnetic coil to generate a signal. The rotation of the wheel or differential induces a magnetic field around the sensor. The fluctuations of this magnetic field generate a voltage in the sensor. Since the voltage induced in the sensor is a result of the rotating wheel, this sensor can become inaccurate at slow speeds. The slower rotation of the wheel can cause inaccurate fluctuations in the magnetic field and thus cause inaccurate readings to the controller. Valves There is a valve in the brake line of each brake controlled by the ABS. On some systems, the valve has three positions:

The ABS runs because of the electrical parts of your car. In fact, the ABS runs on its own fuse. These fuses are not immune to failure. For no reason at all, a fuse can blow at any time. On the other hand, some motorcycle riders are protesting against a compulsory ABS for all bikes because they call for a possibility to switch the system off, for off-road usage or for other reasons.

Prius c is equipped with Toyota's Anti-skid Braking System (ABS). Modern ABS systems use a four-channel controller module that features individual sensors and relief valves on all four wheels - older variations that feature one, two or three channels would have sensors across a front or rear axle, depending on the layout of the vehicle.
