Front and back wheels can lock up simultaneously due to a sudden loss of traction, often caused by excessive braking force, slippery road conditions, or a failure in the vehicle's braking system. When the brakes are applied too hard or too quickly, especially on wet or icy surfaces, all wheels may exceed their grip limits, leading to skidding. Additionally, a malfunctioning anti-lock braking system (ABS) can result in all wheels locking if it fails to modulate brake pressure effectively. Proper weight distribution and tire condition also play crucial roles in maintaining traction during braking.
