Abstract

A traction enhancement system suitable for use as part of an integrated braking system of a means of transportation having wheels that engage a surface; the system includes a delivery system suitable for delivering a traction enhancement compound onto a target surface where increased traction is required, and a control system adapted to determine if a collision between the means of transportation and an external object is probable, and to cause the delivery system to be actuated, in order for the delivery system to deliver the traction enhancement compound onto the target surface.
