As a mechanic, I understand how braking systems work, but I'm curious about the actual emergency braking techniques drivers should use in real situations.

What emergency braking techniques have you found most effective for avoiding collisions? I'm particularly interested in emergency braking techniques for different surfaces - dry pavement, wet roads, ice, gravel.

Are there specific emergency braking techniques for cars with ABS versus older vehicles without? What emergency braking techniques would you practice in a safe environment to build muscle memory?
