How To Stop A Car With No Brakes
How To Stop A Car With No Brakes
You're driving to Grandma's house with a basket of goodies, and you crest Helluva Hill. You hit the brakes to slow down and the pedal goes to the floor. Uh-oh! What do you do?
Begin pumping the brake pedal and keep pumping it.
You may be able to build up enough pressure in the braking system to slow down a bit, or even stop completely. If you have antilock brakes, you do not normally pump them--but if your brakes have failed, this may work.
Do not panic. Relax and steer the car smoothly.
Cars will often safely corner at speeds much higher than you realize or are used to driving. The rear of the car may slip, so steer evenly, being careful not to overcorrect.
Shift the car into the lowest gear and let the engine and transmission slow you down.
Pull the emergency brake, but not too hard.
Pulling too hard on the emergency brake will cause the rear wheels to lock and the car to spin around. Use even, constant pressure. In most cars, the emergency brake (the hand brake or parking brake) is cable operated and serves as a fail-safe brake that should work even when the rest of the braking system has failed. The car should slow down and, in combination with the lower gear, eventually stop.
If you come up behind another car, use it to help you stop.
Blow your horn and flash your lights to get the driver's attention. If it appears you're going to hit the car, try to hit it square, bumper to bumper, so you do not knock the other vehicle off the road. This is an extremely dangerous maneuver. It works best if the vehicle in front of you is larger than yours--a bus or truck, for example--and if both vehicles are traveling at about the same speed. You do not want to crash into a much slower-moving or stopped vehicle. However, you may have no choice.

Emang elo pertama dapet SIM di luar negeri, ya? Abis, face it, lah. Paling juga yang ngambil SIM di Indonesia secara sah bisa dihitung pake jari.aspsilver wrote:artikel bagus nih..!!!
this is what most drivers do not know or realize.
harusnya di tiap sekolah mengemudi diajarin ginian. atau paling tidak waktu ujian SIM pertama kali.

Anyway, good post there. Some of them are quite funny (but true).

Nice Tips!!
Kaya`nya poin terakhir paling suuusssaaahhh dilakukan tuh!
Dengan pertimbangan :
1. Biaya perbaikan mahal.
2. Kena damprat babe tuh.
3. Bisa dikeroyok sekampung kalo ternyata mobil depannya penduduk sekitar situ.
4. Kalo depannya sedan ndak papa...kalo truk......sama aja bunuh diri...donk!

Untuk point #1 and #2 yg disebut oleh bung Indy, kalo dikau ada full coverage auto insurance, soal biaya mungkin engga terlalu pusing karena di-cover oleh pihak insurance.indy wrote:Kaya`nya poin terakhir paling suuusssaaahhh dilakukan tuh!

Kalo point #3, wah itu daku setuju banget ama bung Indy, apalagi kalo setelah dikeroyok rame-rame terus dibakar hidup-hidup dan kemudian mayat kita diseret dan diarak keliling kampung sambil disorak-soraki sebelum kemudian dicincang dan bagian badan kita yg sudah dicincang oleh mereka itu digantung utk di-display di jembatan layang kampung mereka itu.
Bahaya lain adalah......apabila ternyata mobil depan yg kita jadikan "bantalan" itu ternyata adalah mobil President, resiko mati ditembak oleh pasukan pengawal President itu sangat sangat amat tinggi (karena kita bisa disangka terrorist atau disangka bermaksud men-assasinate President)
Mengenai point #4 yg disebutkan oleh bung Indy...........kalo di depan ternyata adalah truk, hanya ini yg bisa daku katakan kepada sang driver yg naas tersebut.............setelah "kepergian" dikau, bolehkah daku menikahi jandamu yg aduhai ui ui auuuuuh so hot itu?

wah kalo dah rem blong jangan mikirin biaya perbaikan mahal atau kena damprat dong. daripada mati kan mending betulin mobil. lagipula kan kebanyakan sekarang mobil sudah diasuransi.
kalo dikeroyok orang sekampung, wah itu susah juga yah.....
yah diem aja mati. nabrak mobil depan belum tentu mati, yah patut dicoba.

Re: How To Stop A Car With No Brakes
bisa aja om.. klu takut over rev ya koplingnya yg dipompa kali ya... jd biar engine brakenya dpt tp ga terlalu over rev. tp ga tau merusak pa ga. dulu pernah kjadian remnya blong gara2 master remnya rusak. utg msh berhenti dgn cara dipompa pedal remnya.

Re: How To Stop A Car With No Brakes
Ijin nyimak gan. Gmn kalo misalnya pas matik, terus spt yg agan diatas bilang masuk R, biarin aja girboks jebol. Pas udah agak pelan, matiin juga kunci kontaknya.
Apakah itu bisa lgs membuat mobil jg lgs mati mesinnya?
Thanks
