Why antilock breaking system is widely used?
I hope I understand your question. Anti-lock brakes are used to keep your brakes from locking if you slam them on. If your wheels lock, your tires will skid on the pavement. This will increase your stopping time and possibly throw your car into an uncontrollable skid since one front wheel may skid before the other. Wet pavement exacerbates the problem.

Why is an eighteen wheeler called an eighteen wheeler if it only has 12 wheels?
- There are many other combinations out there of "18-wheelers" that do not have 18 wheels. Basically, an "18-wheeler" is the slang term for any truck-trailer combination that is over 26,000# and uses a 5th wheel setup for attaching the trailer to the tractor (truck). - A typical, standard, five axle tractor-trailer combination in North America has 18 wheels. Always has, always will. - In some instances, companies may replace the dual wheels with what are known as 'Super Singles' - a single, very wide tire and rim which replace a dual wheel. There are several companies out there that think that this is a more efficient way to run tires on their rigs. - Of course, there are combinations which may have more or less road wheels - a tractor-trailer which has less or more than 18 wheels is still a tractor-trailer, for which the term "18 wheeler" has become synonymous (due to 18 wheels being the norm). - The term "18-wheeler" is just like Vice-Grips (locking-jaw pliers), or Channel-Locks (slip-jaw pliers), or Kleenex (tissue paper). - They are all "improper" names synonomously used for a given item. Kudos!

What does MSR stand for in a car?
The so-called engine braking control (MSR). It controls the wheel slippage when the foot it taken off the accelerator. If the drive wheels lose adhesion during severe load changes, the vehicle becomes unstable. It can no longer be steered and may skid. The MSR detects this tendency by comparing the speed of the drive wheels with that of the free-moving wheels and then accelerates slightly if necessary.
