It stops the ABS working - which is useful on snow and ice. If you brake on any low friction surface it is very easy to lock the wheels - with ABS it then decides that you are now skidding and therefore releases the brakes, so you have no brakes. Without ABS you are able to lock the wheels to build up a wedge of snow in front of the tyres to slow the car down, and/or cadence brake in a more planned way.
