ABS senses when your tires have lost traction and induce a changing pressure on the brake pads, reducing the pressure to regain control, then reapplying however much pressure you are telling the system to apply through the brake pedal.

ABS is q safety feature that helps you stay in control of the vehicle because as you're tires lock up you lose steering controllability, especially on slick surfaces.

Will traction control on 1998 Monte Carlo shift the drive power from wheel to wheel frequently on slick roads causing the car to pull from side to side while driving?
YES I had a problem one, never did get the "feel" for it just turned it off. This is the way traction control systems normally work though; most of the time you'll find that they're doing more good than harm. Some badly designed traction control systems (mostly on Hondas and Toyotas) also cut power to the engine, which can be dangerous in traffic; it's good to disable these before crossing an intersection or passing.
