How can the shortest braking distance of a car equipped with the anti-lock braking system (ABS) be achieved?

In the photo you can see the red ABS warning light from the dashboard. In a car with an anti-lock braking system, you get the shortest braking distance by pressing the brake pedal as hard as possible and holding it until the car stops - answer C. Pulsating braking (A) is a technique for cars without ABS, and pressing the pedal gently (B) lengthens the braking distance.

ABS itself regulates the braking force on each wheel so that it does not lock; the driver does not have to do this with their foot. When the system is working, the pedal pulses and makes a rattling noise - this is normal, and you must not reduce the pressure then, because every time you ease off the pedal, braking takes longer. The Road Traffic Act requires you to brake in a way that does not cause danger and to keep a distance that allows you to avoid a collision, so in an emergency you brake firmly and at the same time you can steer to go around the obstacle. It is worth feeling once, in an empty car park, how the pedal behaves when braking with ABS.
