Anyone with an IQ above 5 knows if you take 2 objects and PRESS them together while one is moving; due to something called FRICTION it will build heat and it will continue to build heat until the objects are no longer touching.Last edited by a moderator: Feb 3, 2013

InstructionsMountain Driving
Apply light, steady pressure to the brake pedal so you do not overheat the brakes. Overheated brakes can result in melted air lines and a complete loss of air brakes. Avoid a hard application of the brakes. A stable breaking procedure will work better and reduce the likelihood of overheating the brakes. Driving down a mountain in a big truck can be extremely dangerous and should only be attempted by an experienced driver or with a certified instructor in the truck supervising.
As I said, there's more than one way to skin a cat. Sometimes there's more than one correct answer.
Just like it states "loss of air brakes", not spring brakes, it's reading comphrension.
