What limits the impact of vehicle balance on vehicle stability during emergency vehicle maneuvers?
thresh hold braking
If your vehicle has anti locking braking system should you stomp on the break and not let up in an emergency?
false
When you are driving and hear an ambulance siren?
yield to the emergency vehicle
If your vehicle has a hydraulic fluid braking system then you should stomp on the break and not let up in an emergency?
No, it locks up on the brakes

What happens to your vehicle if you have a blow out in one of your front tires?
The vehicle will immediately swerve toward the blown tire side. Rear braking is very handy at this point. Pull on emergency brake as hard as you can.
What is the difference between payload and towing capacity?
Payload dertimines the amount of weight your vehicle can carry safely while driving (Braking and Steering) Tow capacity means how much your vehicle can tow behind itself safely while driving. (braking and steering) Check your owners manual or cdall the dealer if not sure. Hope this helps
What does it mean when your car shakes?
Need more info like what is the vehicle doing when it shakes, is it idling in park, driving down the road, braking, driving at highway speeds, etc.
What is EBS on a car?
The Electronic Brake assist System (EBS) is a very efficient aid in emergency braking situations when the driver wants the vehicle to stop as quickly as possible. In these situations, most drivers apply the brake fast, but not with the maximum pressure, and this insufficient braking power leads to dangerously long braking distances. The system is triggered when the brake assist recognizes the fast and hard braking by the driver classified as typical 'emergency braking' and activates the maximum braking power immediately. Therefore even moderate pedal force leads to maximum deceleration. This can help avoid an accident or reduce its seriousness, due to decreased vehicle speed at the moment of collision.
What is the meaning of the term braking efficiency?
Braking effort as a percentage of the weight of the vehicle.
What is braking and braking distances?
Braking in a moving vehicle is applying the brakes to slow or halt movement, usually by depressing a pedal. The braking distance is the distance between the time the brakes are applied and the time the vehicle comes to a complete stop.
How long will it take to stop a vehicle?
There are many factors involved and therefore no single answer. Some factors are reaction time, vehicle speed, vehicle weight, braking type, braking efficiency and vehicle type.
