Automobiles have anti-lock braking systems to prevent the wheels from locking when the brake is suddenly applied. Rather than applying a constant force on the wheel, an anti-lock braking system exerts a series of forces of short duration on the wheel.

The correct answer is:

When the tire is locked, the frictional force is greater but the car cannot be steered.
