ABS Tweak out?
Okay, I stopped and got gas today on my way to work. I always use the same pump and it is the one closest to the road. Anyway when I was leaving I wanted to go the DD to get breakfast. DD is located right across from the other entrance to the gas station and I was at the other entrance. When i pulled up I was more angled to go right instead of left like I needed to. No biggie, plenty of room to make the turn. I wait and I wait, finally a chance to go.
I pull out hit the center of the road and step sideways, roads damp from rain early morning, Nothing spectacular. Lifted of the throttle a bit and corrected. Now is where something weird happened. I have to slowdown to turn into the DD parking lot, only need to slow a bit, light pressure on the brake pedal. The thing starts tweaking out, pulsing like the ABS is activating and it does this till I stop behind the car infront of me.
My question is what the F happened? Could it be becuase the rear tires were still spining(faster than the fronts) when I put on the brakes and turned into the driveway?

that is definetly what happened,, the abs doesn't give a rats *** about speed differentials front to back until you touch the brakes and that is what happened once the brakes where touched it basically saw that the front wheels were locked up because the rears were spinning faster.
if you have traction control or if it is on then the abs cares about wheel speed differentials when not on the brakes
