What if the brakes fail?

The first step of Pacific Auto Network is to turn on the warning light to remind other vehicles, and at the same time pay attention to avoid vehicles, avoid swinging from side to side and stay away from other vehicles. Step two. Shift gears quickly, shift to low gear, and then slowly apply the brake. Pull over. Be sure to pull it up slowly. If the handbrake is pulled too fast, the wheels can easily lock up, which is very dangerous.

The vacuum booster pump of the automobile leaks or fails. You should know that the force when we step on the brake pedal is increased by the brake booster pump. If it breaks down, the brakes will have no main force, so it will be difficult for us to step on them. What if the brakes fail?

1. Step on the brake pedal several times to increase the chance of braking force recovery. Once you encounter an accident in braking, you should know how to step on the brake several times repeatedly, use the air in the oil pipe to put pressure on the braking system, and then it is possible to restore the braking force with repeated stepping.

2. Turn on the emergency lights to remind the surrounding vehicles. At the critical moment of brake failure, most car owners will only think about how to slow down the car, but forget to inform the surrounding cars. So while slowing down, turn on the lights and speakers and tell the car next to you to be careful, and then call the police for help.

3, hand brake, if you are a manipulator brake, you should slowly pull the hand brake to gradually increase the braking strength. Because if you suddenly pull the handbrake hard, the rear wheel lock will cause sideslip, which is more dangerous.

If you are an electronic handbrake, you can also operate it, but pay more attention to the steering wheel at this time. At the same time, it is necessary to gradually downshift and let the braking effect of the engine itself limit the speed. 4, friction deceleration, pay attention to whether there are objects that can collide left and right, remember never to hit, hold the steering wheel with both hands, and use several minor collisions to force deceleration.
