Abstract

21 Cars were converted to the Ferguson four wheel drive and anti-lock braking system to obtain user experience with the system. The system enabled shorter braking distance to be obtained with the anti-lock braking system in operation than without it on both wet and dry surfaces. The use of the system also resulted in the car remaining directionally stable under all conditions of braking.
