The Anti Slip Regulator stops power to the wheels when they spin,

The asr is designed to be turned off only when you require the wheels to spin at low speed EG: when you are on snow or ice - as the asr will stop the power to the wheels if they start spinning you would never get anywhere, Over 20mph the asr is not active and serves no function.

This was the best answer I found. I searched the ASR on Google and this was someone elses answer on another forum. There are more extensive answers as well.
