Why do you need front brakes?
The front brakes on any vehicle do most of the stopping. When you apply the brakes the weight shifts to the front of the vehicle. For this reason the front brakes are needed more than the rear. Try stopping a vehicle with just the hand brake which applies only the rear brakes.

What do you do if you must stop suddenly in an emergency?
If your vehicle has abs brakes, just apply the brakes hard and steer away from danger. If the vehicle does not have abs brakes, try to apply the brakes without locking up the wheels and going into a skid then steer away from danger. If you lock up the brakes and go into a skid you will lose control of your steering.
Why is it unwise to suddenly apply the brakes of a car on a wet or icy pavement?
Suddenly applying the brakes on a wet or icy road could cause the wheels to lock. With the wheels locked up it takes longer to stop. Also, locked wheels could lead to a loss of control of the vehicle.
How do you release the back brakes on a astra van there coming on before the front ones?
your back brakes are supposed to apply before your front brakes, they do this so your car does not take a nose dive every time you apply the brakes. but if it is very noticeable i would check the adjustment of your rear brakes (if you have a disc/drum setup) or i would check your proportioning valve if they are locking up
What if your asr light comes on and the car boggs down 1993 e400 mercedes?
ASR is like just as the same as traction control on American cars, if one of the wheels lose traction on the road and spin more than the others the ASR will engage and electronically apply the brakes on that wheel, if it happens on 2 wheels it will apply the brakes to both wheels and slow the engine down.
What do brake rotors do?
They stop your car. They are round discs that are kind of attached to the wheels and the pads grip the rotors when you apply the brakes to slow down the car. When a rotor becomes warped due to excessive heat, the steering wheel will shake when you apply the brakes.
