- First of all, Anti-Lokc brakes are VOO-DO safety. The TV
- commercials are wrong to show how a Lumina or other vehicle can
- stop in very quick and short distances. The real problem with
- safety features like these are that; The safer the driver feels
- the more likely they are too be in a wreck.
