If you want to stop in a straight line ASAP, just slam the brakes as hard as you can...it will ruin your tires and leave rubber marks, but ABS wont help you stop any faster than that...

What's the opinion of all you Yaris owners out there?

I mean I can save a lot of money by not going with it which I would rather do....but if I'm gonna die for it...it's all for not.
