Strong and stable: HD sector continues to build on ABS

The anti-lock braking system (ABS) is among the most important developments in the history of vehicle safety laying the foundation for active braking. That’s according to Mark Melletat, Director of Field Operations at Meritor Wabco Vehicle Control Systems. As he explains, the company has been involved in the development and manufacturing of ABS for over 25 years. Specifically, Meritor Wabco (MW) works in the commercial vehicle segment, with the majority of its business serving the heavy-duty tractor-trailer class, where the adoption of safety technology has been particularly prevalent.
