Modern cars are equipped with various systems that ensure a definitely higher level of security in the course of travelling. Obviously, there is no need to know all of these systems by heart but it is certainly worthwhile to make sure your car is as safe as possible. One of the better known systems is the ABS that can be found in the vast majority of cars. This system is responsible for safe braking. In the event of emergency braking, pressure is adjusted in the brakes and thus the wheels of the vehicle do not get locked.
