I can stop a lot faster without ABS than I can with it… especially our primitive ABS systems. ABS is for people who can’t do more than basic driving just like traction control… though I can agree most of the time people delete it because everyone else does.

If you simply use your car to get from point A to point B then ABS is fine, most people don’t know how to deal with tires locking up and that’s why ABS was invented and it has it’s place. With practice you can stop significantly shorter without it.

There’s a reason race cars don’t have ABS.
