For us manual users, we can let off the accelerator and use engine braking to slow us down, much safer.

I watched one of your videos with this content. Then a few weeks later, I experienced a frightening break failure, I was fast to remember your tutorial. This technique save my life, the lives of others and even from batching anybody's property. To God be the glory.

Step 0 - Dont freak out. You may forget what to do

No. Change to lower gear until at lowest gear. The car will automstically slow down because the gear change will change the drive ratio. At lowest gear the car will move slowly

Brake cable was cut when I was driving a VW bug years ago - I used hand brake gradually with ease. Went up and down hills and even a hilly stop light. Made it home with no accidents. I was 16

Thank you for your brief explanation on how to handle the car when the brake is fail. I already learn the new idea today

Manual: break with engine
Automatic: if your car has cruise control/limiter, simply put limiter to the lowest value (e.g. 20 mph) - this will make the car break with the engine.
I used this trick going down the long slope and didn't want to apply breaks all the time. I set the limiter low and it slowed me down. When I wanted to go faster, I would just set the limiter higher.

Easy way and convenient way

1. SHIFT TO A LOWER GEAR
2. Honk and use hazard lights to warn other drivers.
3. Turn Off the Engine, but Keep the Key in Position ( Don't lock steering wheel)
4. Use the Emergency (Hand) Brake
5. Steer towards an open or less crowded area to avoid collisions while you bring the car to a stop.

turn on the hazard lights and then down shift to the next lower gear and then to the next lower gear while pullling the emergency break up and down

For automatic transmission cars: put the gear in the P position. This acts as an emergency brake. It may wear out the transmission but it is for your safety

Edit: For those who say to take the foot of the gas pedal: it may or may not work sometimes

My brakes failed last month. I’m so lucky I drive a manual and I typically leave lots of space between me and the next car, because when I started tapping the breaks to slow down and nothing happened, I was able to downshift and slow myself enough to pull over and avoid an accident.

My suggestion: Move over to the slow lane, side lane or safe area (so that you are out of the line of oncoming cars) then put your car in "NEUTRAL" it will very shortly slow down and conk out on its own being that it is not in "drive" anymore. You can down shift while doing this, but "neutral" will eventually take you car out of "drive" altogether.

Better idea. Put it in sport mode and drine it like a standard transmission. Down shift, use the transmission to slow the car dawn. Then pull the hand brake once you get the vehicle to slow down. Drive safe and always use your seat belt.

Put in neutral first to disengage the engine acceleration

Thank you for the tips 🙏. I am a new driver, and this information is very helpful 😊.

I doubt anyone would advise opening the door and jumping out unless you were headed for a drop off where the car would sail into the abyss and explode. But this video did make me think about our car with a dial rather than a shift lever and realized I hadn't noticed the N position until looking more closely. It's not a setting most people use often and you can be blind to it being there. The other thing with newer cars is the absence of a handled emergency brake like she's using. They may have a small paddle on the console instead of lever, or they have a push button emergency brake. Good idea to know which you have and how to activate it in an emergency situation.

Engine braking rev match down shifting down as much as possible and clutch in if possible in 1st gear
