Questions Learners Have About ABS & ESC Basics

Find answers to the most common queries learners have when practising ABS & ESC Basics, including how questions match the official theory exam in the Netherlands, how scoring works, and how this practice improves exam readiness.

What is the main purpose of ABS in a vehicle?

The main purpose of ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) is to prevent the wheels from locking up during heavy or emergency braking, allowing the driver to maintain steering control and potentially avoid obstacles.

Does ABS always reduce braking distance?

No, ABS does not always guarantee a shorter braking distance. While it can on some surfaces, its primary benefit is maintaining steering control during braking, which is crucial for safety.

How does ESC contribute to vehicle safety?

ESC (Electronic Stability Control) enhances safety by detecting and correcting a vehicle's loss of traction or stability, for instance, during a skid. It selectively applies brakes to individual wheels to help steer the vehicle in the intended direction.

Can ESC prevent all types of skids?

No, while ESC is highly effective at correcting the start of a skid, it cannot help you when your vehicle is slipping severely. It's an assistance system, not a substitute for safe driving practices.

What should I do if the brake pedal vibrates during heavy braking?

If the brake pedal vibrates during heavy braking, this indicates that the ABS system is active and working correctly. You should continue to press the brake pedal firmly and not release it.
