Which of the following ways of braking in a passenger car fitted with the ABS is the most effective?

aPulse pressing of the brake pedal.
bFast and strong pressing of the brake pedal.
cPressing the clutch pedal and then the brake pedal.

Why?

For emergency braking with ABS, press the brake pedal quickly and firmly, then maintain pressure. ABS automatically adjusts braking at each wheel, so pumping the pedal is inappropriate. Pressing the clutch first does not improve braking effectiveness and may delay applying the brakes.
