there are mountains of data that show drivers of cars with ABS
were driving more aggressively and taking more risks with
stopping/breaking


Correlation does not imply causation.

I haven't studied the data, so this is a question, not an argument:

Does the data clearly show that the drivers were being more aggressive *because* the vehicles had ABS?

One could argue that along with ABS came many other technological enhancements related to handling, performance, etc. and those enhancements contributed more to the increase in aggressive driving than the ABS. Better braking systems in general may have contributed to more aggressive driving/braking, but can it be shown that it was specifically the ABS?
