The ABs brakes are great. I live in Florida and it rains alot in the summer.
I can't begin to tell you how many " WHY THE HELL DID WE EVER LEAVE
ORLANDO,MARGE! " drivers have made me use ABS and change lanes hoping there
was no one in my blind spot 'cause I'm not good enough to look 3 places and
steer correctly while panic braking. One less thing off my mind in this
situation is welcome. the computer is always faster than a person
preoccupied with wrecking their beloved vehicle. If ABS is defective the
brakes are not any worse :->
You can always pull the fuse.
