What is Emergency Brake?
1.
Meaning handbrake in English, there is no apparent reason for it to be called an emergency handbrake; as there isn’t often a emergency situation where it would be a good idea to lock up the back wheels. Smarter Americans call it a parking brake.
Yeee haw, I’m gonna park up and use the emergency brake to secure my car ya’ll.
