Which braking system feature is described as Anti-lock brake system with automatic traction control?

• A. Anti-lock brake system with automatic traction control
• B. Electronic stability control
• C. Hydraulic disc brakes
• D. Mechanical brakes

Answer: (A)

That describes an Anti-lock Braking System with automatic traction control. ABS uses wheel-speed sensors to prevent the wheels from locking during heavy braking, which preserves steering control. Traction control monitors wheel spin and, when slip is detected, reduces engine power or brakes the slipping wheel to regain traction. Together, they provide braking stability and better grip on slippery surfaces. This is distinct from electronic stability control, which is a broader system that coordinates braking to keep the vehicle on its intended path and may include ABS and traction control as part of its functions; the described feature focuses specifically on ABS combined with automatic traction control. Hydraulic disc brakes and mechanical brakes refer to the hardware and don’t describe the integrated electronic control features.
