What happens when the brake caliper is released on a car?
If one tire is spinning substantially slower than the others while you’re braking the vehicle, the brake caliper on that particular wheel will be released very briefly so that tire can regain grip. After that, the ABS module will reapply the brakes on that wheel.
Is it bad to brake and steer with ABS?
Note: it is generally a very bad idea to brake and steer at the same time even if you have ABS equipped. While you’re braking, the weight of the vehicle pitches forward, leaving the rear end of the car very light. If you attempt to steer with a light rear end, the car could easily spin.
Why does my tire stop spinning when I put on the brakes?
This is especially important when you must put on the brakes suddenly to prevent an accident or crash. When you press on the brakes, the brake calipers force the brake pads to clamp down on the brake rotors. If this clamping force exceeds the available traction between the ground and the tire, that tire will actually stop spinning.
