    if your truck has ABS don't pump your brakes, that's the whole idea of the ABS and it can apply and release the brakes a lot faster than anyone's leg can. It pulsates the brake off and on so fast it sounds like somethings grinding.

      You still can't steer when you hold the brakes even with abs. If you just hold your brakes while you slide you willl go in a straight line and not the way your steering. Just because you have abs doesn't mean you can just push you pedal down, hold it there, and expect to have a controlled stop everytime.

      @MystikalDawn 2 роки тому +140

      @@92clintonr That makes no sense whatsoever, ABS (Antilock Braking System) prevents a skid by keeping the wheels from locking up. Why the hell would you pump your brake when that is exactly what the ABS is doing itself in a much faster more efficient way???
      Your quote "Just because you have abs doesn't mean you can just push you pedal down, hold it there, and expect to have a controlled stop" that's exactly what ABS is for, it takes that job away from the driver so they can simply hold the pedal down and focus on maintaining control of the vehicle.

      Where did I say pump your brakes? I said you can't hold them down. I live in Northern Canada working remote jobs farther north than you can imagine. I know how to drive when you're sliding. Your vehicle does not properly steer if you just hold the brakes and never let them go. It's ok though, I don't need to argue with you. I've sat in the passenger seat many times with people who drive with your mentality and watched them crash in an easily avoidable accident simply because they froze and just locked their brakes.

      I grew up in the extreme SE corner of Minnesota, aka the other part of the state with hills. Except the roads are hilly and curvy. Welcome to the Driftless Region. Obviously, we don’t get lake condition blizzards. When weather is predicted, you make a calm trip to the store to get a few groceries and then just plan to stay home if it gets really bad.
      So, when do we explain to people that when the temps slide deep into the negative, that we leave a sink running to prevent frozen pipes?

One small inexpensive detail changed all of that one particular day exactly like this one. WINDSHIELD WIPERS
    Word of advice for winter drivers..It doesn't matter if you've got all the winter bells, and whistles if you cant see out of your windshield.... When you put your winter tires on every year make sure to upgrade those wipers or you'll spend more time stopping on a dangerous slippery highway to scrape ice off than you will driving!...

Revelation 1:8 says that Jesus is the alpha and the omega. Luke and revelation is the ending times, and Jesus is returning back. So are you going to submit your life to him or no? Narrow is the path that leads to the gates of heaven, but only few people find it. The gates that is the path to destruction is where many people find it! Jesus loves you SO MUCH!
