The other day, while on snow, i tried to nail the brakes while turning and it was like the abs locked up. the brake pedal acutally pushed my foot back the harder i pressed it. It happens in my 00' accord and my father's 93 buick

 

Anti Lock Brakes

 

the snow crawls up your break lines and pushes your foot up- you cant stop me!!! hahahahah snow crawling up brakes lines is bad you need a propane heater.... jk ABS

 

i know about abs, but why does the car still slide?

 

ABS isnt magic, it will try its best to prevent wheel lock up, but with snow there is very little traction available

 

your car will still slide on snow even if the tires are rolling...

 

thats pulsing from the ABS pump. car makers leave that pulsing in the system for feedback, even though they could probably figure out how to remove it. When you feel that pulse in the pedal you know that your ABS is active. Valuable thing to know

 

thanx for all the responses! pretty helpful stuff.

 

bla, abs is for pussies...real men pump their pedal!

 

on the track, yes. but I'll keep mine for on the street thank you

 

Or, they dont have ABS at all, like me, and my 4th gen
