Sample question from test 1
safe-driving
Under Mississippi equipment rules, what braking systems must a vehicle have?
- A foot brake and a parking brake
- Two parking brakes and no foot brake
- Only an electronic anti-lock system
- A hand brake used only on hills
Answer: A foot brake and a parking brake. The vehicle must have two separate braking functions: a foot brake and a parking brake. The manual also gives performance distances at twenty miles per hour, but the equipment question first turns on the presence of both systems. An anti-lock system does not replace the required foot and parking brakes, and a hill-only hand brake is not the stated standard. When checking a vehicle, confirm that the service brake and parking brake operate independently and that each can stop the vehicle within its specified distance.
