If your brakes fail one of the first things?

If your brakes fail, one of the first things you should do is stay calm to maintain control of the vehicle. Gradually downshift to a lower gear to help slow the car, and use the emergency brake smoothly to avoid skidding. Look for a safe place to steer, such as an open area or a soft shoulder. Finally, signal to other drivers that you are experiencing an emergency.
