ABS - American Bull Shi...

I have noted one difficulty with ABS, and that is its failure to operate on
snow
and ice. Since I live in Southern California, I do not get that much snow
but,
in any quick application of my Mustang's breaks, on snow covered roads,
they always seem to lock up. Well, the pumping action occurs but, at each
application of the pump, I notice wheel lock-up. There is no stopping.
