ABS can improve vehicle stability, steerability and stopping capability.
When the braking force created by the driver is greater than the tire can handle, the wheel can lock up. Locked wheels can create vehicle instability problems and prevent steering around obstacles in the road. Stopping distance on many slippery surfaces will also increase with locked wheels. Four-wheel ABS prevents wheel lock-up in situations in which the wheels might normally lock, such as on slippery roads.

If a wheel stops turning while the others are still turning the system releases brake pressure to all the wheels until the stopped wheel begins turning and then automatically reapplies pressure if your foot is still on the brake.
