anti-lock brake system ABS
ABS??
It means that you need to have your brakes checked (ABS = Anti-lock Brake System). Bring your car in for new brake pads and ask the mechanic to check for other brake system problems by doing a diagnostic.
The anti-lock brake system (ABS) is incorporated with the brake system on a vehicle and keeps the wheels from locking up during a panic stop. This helps to enable the driver to steer out of a situation.
Your ABS (Antilock Brake System) is kicking in. It's working.

It would be your ABS system on your car.
Yes, you can still drive the car. The light indicates there is a problem with the ABS. Your conventional brake system will still work. But do, check your master cylinder to make sure you are not low of brake fluid. If you notice anything out of the ordinary with the normal brake system stop driving and have it repaired. Know that your ABS may or may not function in an emergency.
The system failed it's self test when you started the car. If you are lucky it is a blown fuse.
Assuming you do not have an abs brake system, ease off the brakes so you can steer out of your situation.
abs is part of your brake system if the light comes on and stays on, you have a problem and need your brakes checked if it only comes on when starting car,this is normal and is showing that check system is working
ABS stands for Anti-lock Brake System. If you're talking about the indicator light on your instrument panel, it'll come on and go off once you start the car, but if it stays on that's either an indication that the ABS system has a problem, or that there is a problem with just the regular brake system.
