Description
State the truck brake system according to the manufacturer’s specifications, the inspection or the owner.
ABS: An anti-lock braking system (ABS, from German: Antiblockiersystem) is a safety system that allows the wheels on a motor vehicle to continue interacting tractively with the road surface as directed by driver steering inputs while braking, preventing the wheels from locking up (that is, ceasing rotation) and therefore avoiding skidding.
EBS: By actuating the brake pedal the driver defines the deceleration request. The EBS transmits this input electronically to all braking system components. Thus the braking system's response times are shorter.
