The study analysed the performance of the anti-lock braking system (ABS) in relation to vehicle stability and braking; within this framework, the objective was to analyse the performance of the ABS system in relation to vehicle stability and braking. Using a quantitative experimental approach, comparative tests were carried out on different vehicles, with the system both activated and deactivated, on dry and wet surfaces and at different speeds. The results showed that ABS significantly improved directional stability and reduced braking distance in low-grip conditions, although the differences were smaller on dry surfaces. It also prevented wheel lock-up and helped maintain control of the vehicle. ABS established itself as a key active safety system in critical driving conditions.
