A statitical analysis on the effect of antilock brake system to accidents

Driving safety has a great importance for cars. On slippery road conditions, if driver makes uncontrolled, sudden braking, it will cause lock tyres and slipping the vehicle without rotating tyres. That?s why vehicle will be out of control, it will move left or right direction uncontrolledly. On various road-ground conditions, stopping vehicle in asecure distance depends upon tyres movement without slipping. Expectation for braking system is that stop securely the vehicle in a suitable distance particularly slippery road conditions. It means automobile?s braking system can be defined as active safety system. The most important development to support this system is ABS (Antilock Braking System) to prevent locking tyres all various brakings. Antilock Braking System mainly works at pressure limitation over tyres. So, maksimum stopping force is applied to system without locking brakes. Driver during sudden braking, ABS controls hydraulic pressure which applied to brakes in manner without locking tyres. ABS helps to provide good linear stability during emergent braking.
