  2. Threshold braking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Threshold_braking

    Threshold braking or limit braking is a driving technique most commonly used in motor racing, but also practiced in road vehicles to slow a vehicle at the maximum rate using the brakes. [1] The technique involves the driver controlling the brake pedal (or lever) pressure to maximize the braking force developed by the tires. The optimal amount ...

  3. Skid (automobile) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skid_(automobile)

    Threshold braking and cadence braking are two manual techniques used to extract maximum deceleration from a vehicle. Threshold braking maintains a steady braking force with slight (10-20%) slip, around or just below the point of maximum tire grip force. Cadence braking accepts that holding the threshold braking limit is exceptionally hard, and ...

  4. Cadence braking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cadence_braking

    Cadence braking or stutter braking is a driving technique that involves pumping the brake pedal and is used to allow a car to both steer and brake on a slippery surface. It is used to effect an emergency stop where traction is limited to reduce the effect of skidding from road wheels locking up under braking. This can be a particular problem ...

  5. Anti-lock braking system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-lock_braking_system

    This replaces the need to manually pump the brakes while driving on a slippery or a low traction surface, allowing to steer even in most emergency braking conditions. When the ABS is in operation the driver will feel a pulsing in the brake pedal; this comes from the rapid opening and closing of the valves.

  9. Collision avoidance system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collision_avoidance_system

    It also allows the vehicle to engage braking assist, if there is a risk of a frontal collision and the driver suddenly applies the brakes. [47] The speed difference to allow an automatic stop was raised to 50 km/h (31 mph) in 2013 with improved cameras. [49] The adaptive cruise control was also upgraded in 2010 to allow automatic emergency ...
