Taking a Look at Car Braking Problems

Car Braking Problems:

Sudden car accidents have become one of the major problems that various stakeholders in the automobile industry continue to experience. The severity of this problem is evident in the frequency of sudden car accidents, injuries, and the number of deaths that occur. Actually, sudden car accidents take place on a daily and regular basis to an extent that they cause significant harm to victims and their families. Some of these accidents are attributed to the behaviors of drivers and passengers who believe they will never get involved in car accidents. As a result, these people drive while drunk, don’t wear seat belts, and use cell phones while driving. However, sudden car accidents are also attributed to several different reasons that need to be addressed in order to lessen their frequency and impact. One of the major factors contributing to sudden car accidents is car braking problems, especially difficulties for drivers to identify the car brake strength. Consequently, there is need to design a product that limit car accidents through providing information regarding the strength of the car brake.

Issues Resulting from Sudden Car Accidents:

As previously mentioned, sudden car accidents are caused by various factors ranging from mechanical problems to the behaviors of drivers and passengers. However, most of these accidents are completely preventable, especially those associated with the behaviors of drivers and passengers. These accidents are preventable because passengers can adopt measures that enhance their safety while travelling. On the other hand, they are also preventable because drivers can avoid fatigue and distractions that cause them. Actually, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administ...

...mining how strong their brake system is. Due to the design of current brakes, they have been forced to rely on 5 different signs that may indicate the need for replacement of brake pads. However, these signs have not been entirely effective in helping drivers, which contributes to the need for a new product. The International Car Break Company has designed a break auto-wear indicator system to help limit accidents associated with drivers not knowing the strength of their brake systems. This product would work similar to the fuel indicator though its uses brightly colored material instead of a scale of figures. The suitability of the product is attributed to the fact that there is no need for modifications of vehicles, no noise makers, and no indicator lights. It’s a simple, cost effective, reliable, and safe system for showing the strength of car brake system.
