Cadence Braking

A method of braking in which the driver rapidly depresses and releases the brake pedal to bring a vehicle to an emergency stop in a similar way to how an ABS system works. Cadence braking in non-ABS brakes is effective in conditions where the tyres can lose traction and the wheels can lock up. The driver applies the footbrake pedal in a series of very rapid jabs at the pedal taking the wheels up to the point of brake locking and then releasing them before the inevitable fall-off in braking efficiency takes place. This method produces a more effective method of braking retaining some steerability of the vehicle at the same time.
