Accident Terms

 
 


Today's Terms

Brake Build-up (Brake Lag)

Definition:
Occurs just after the brakes are applied and continues until they lock.

Reaction Time

Definition:
The motorist who is not alert cannot cope with a sudden emergency as quickly as is necessary. An overly relaxed driver requires more time to react to an emergency than does an alert one.

Brake failure

Definition:
Brake failure can happen. Drum brakes are more commen to fail. Modern dual-circuit brake systems have made total brake failure an unlikely event. If one side of the circuit fails, the other side is usually sufficient to stop a vehicle.
