Anti-lock brakes allow a car to stop quickly on slippery road conditions. 
This is done by the wheel speed sensors which determine if one or more wheels are trying to lock up during braking. If a wheel tries to lock up, a series of hydraulic valves limit or reduce the braking on that wheel.

The answer is D. Pump the brake pedal to activate the ABS.

Anti-lock braking system was designed to help maintain some steering ability while braking in emergency stops. Without an ABS, the wheels of your car locks and will completely lose control over the car. If used properly, an ABS is an effective braking system that can offer an important safety advantage during emergency braking system. A driver who has a vehicle with this system should keep his foot on the brake and maintain a firm and continuous pressure while steering correctly to allow ABS to work properly. Do not pump the brakes even if the brake pedal is pulsating.
