Testing the anti-lock braking system on Mercedes trucks and buses, late 1970s
For the driver, the anti-lock braking system unveiled in 1978 was primarily a milestone in active safety: Maintaining full control over the car’s steering even under emergency braking, because the wheels do not lock – only vastly experienced drivers were able to achieve this before ABS was introduced 40 years ago. Now the vehicle itself performed the intricate work of controlling braking – an absolute sensation at the time. Even during emergency braking, the driver still had an opportunity to deliberately avoid other road users and obstacles, and prevent possible accidents.
The ABS anti-lock braking system developed to production standard was unveiled in August 1978. As early as 1981 ABS was offered for compressed-air brakes, a joint development with Wabco. ABS has been standard equipment on all touring coaches of the brand since 1987 and on all trucks of the brand since 1991.
