Slam on the brakes and steer around the obstruction. Do not pump the brakes. The ABS will do this for you. Be prepared for noises and a shudder in the brake pedal which is normal.

Are antilock brakes are the same as conventional brakes?
The basic foundation brakes are the same but the anti-lock is an addition to the basic system.More: Anti-lock brakes have a sensor that will cause the brakes to pulsate when the brakes get near the point of locking up so you can still steer and move while braking.The system only kicks in during hard (emergency) braking.More: Anti-lock brakes can feel very uncomfortable when first experienced. The chattering and shaking can make you take your foot off the brake thinking something is wrong. To get over this I found an empty parking lot and compared stopping distances.I braked hard to use the anti-lock brakes and repeated the exercise until I felt confident that all that chattering improved my stopping distance.
