One tends to forget the era of when ABS were first introduced on everyday cars and the impact that had on braking distances. Very poignant when in fast moving traffic on motorways, when the unexpected slowing down and braking in stop start traffic would have a material impact if you were ABS fitted and those around you weren't. Whilst you may avoid a collision you usually collected someone up the backside/near misses. As I was doing nearly 100k miles a year, I was always making a mental note of what the braking spec was on the cars around me and making allowances accordingly. I've had a few cars with no ABS and in emergencies always rapidly pumped the brake pedal emulating ABS so getting the brakes to work at their most efficient, rather than just lock them up.
