Independent use of rear or front brake reduces the
overall braking efficiency. In extreme conditions braking
with only rear or front brake may lock the wheel which
would result in skidding or toppling of vehicle.
Braking performance is affected adversely with wet
surfaces, loose surfaces and overheating of brake system
due to unnecessary continuous application of brakes.
For safety, exercise extreme caution while braking and
also at turning. Do not accelerate while turning.
