Correct answer
- Bseguir frenando a fondo.keep braking hard.
When braking sharply there is a danger that the wheels will lock, and you will lose control of the vehicle. To prevent this there is the ABS anti-lock system, a safety system that stops the wheels from locking when braking hard. In an emergency stop, if our vehicle has ABS, we should press the brake pedal fully and keep up the maximum pressure, even if there are vibrations or noises.
