Doesn't look like the anti-locks are having anymore success than the non anti-locks.

Anti-lock brakes help you steer under braking, not slow you down any more quickly. :D

What you don't see is that the anti-lock brakes were applied just outside the frame of the photo, while the regular brakes were applied when they got out of the car in the parking lot. :D

OK, then, it doesn't look like the anti-locks are helping the steering out any more than the non anti-locks.

the applied force vector is not affected by the friction of the braking.
