Question

True or false? your vehicle must be equipped with a foot-pedal operated (hydraulic) brake system for driving and a cable-based brake system for parking both.

Answer 1

True

Step-by-step explanation:

Every vehicle is equipped with two types of braking system which are the foot-pedal brake system and the cable-based brake system. for the safety and proper performance of a car there is always priority given to the braking system because a failed brake system can lead to a very fatal accident which causes loss of lives and properties.

The foot-pedal operated brake system is the primary brake system because it it is used more regularly while driving. while the cable-based brake system also referred to as hand-brake is used mainly in emergencies when the primary brake-system fails and also when parking your vehicle, mostly in hilly areas. so it is necessary/must to have both in your vehicle for safe driving and parking of your vehicle.

Answer 2

True.

Every motor vehicle must come with a braking system for driving and a brake system for parking. Most cars these days have an anti-lock brake system or ABS. ABS brakes should be operated correctly and properly. To stop, always apply steady pressure to the brake pedal. Do not pump.

Parking brakes should be strong enough to hold the vehicle and any load it may carry. At times, if the primary system fails, you can used the parking brake to slow or stop your vehicle.
