I attended Skip Barber Driving School and we did " theshold braking" on the
"skidpad". First we tried braking with ABS engaged on Dodge Neons from a
speed of 50 MPH and the stopping distance was measured. We then switched off
the ABS in the same cars and practiced braking using our own senses to avoid
lockup and with all but one of the eight people in the class, stopping
distance was decreased without using ABS.

Safety Fast,
David Deutsch
