2. Line lock - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_lock

   A line lock is a device that allows the front brakes to lock independently of the rear brakes via a switch. [1] [2] [3] The device is an electric solenoid that controls a valve which allows the brakes to be controlled individually. This allows the front brakes to be locked and the rear brakes to be open, and allows the driver to spin the rear ...

3. Parking brake - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parking_brake

   In manual transmission vehicles, the parking brake is engaged to help keep the vehicle stationary while parked, especially if parked on an incline. [2] [3]While automatic transmission vehicles have a "Park" gear with a parking pawl that immobilizes the transmission, it is still recommended to use the parking brake, as the pawl in the gearbox could fail due to stress or another vehicle striking ...

4. Collision avoidance system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collision_avoidance_system

   Using electronic stability control sensors to measure steering angle, vehicle yaw, and lateral acceleration and brake assist (BAS) sensors to detect emergency braking, the system can tighten the seat belts, adjust seat positions, including rear seats (if installed), raise folded rear headrests (if installed), and close the sunroof if it detects ...

5. Automated emergency braking system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automated_emergency...

   AEB differs from forward collision warning: FCW alerts the driver with a warning but does not by itself brake the vehicle. [4] According to Euro NCAP, AEB has three characteristics: [5] Autonomous: the system acts independently of the driver to avoid or mitigate the accident. Emergency: the system will intervene only in a critical situation.

6. Emergency brake - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emergency_brake

   Advanced emergency braking system, where brakes are applied automatically in case of emergency; Emergency brake assist (EBA or BA), which increases braking effectiveness when a human driver executes a panic stop; Parking brake or hand brake in automobiles, which can also be used in case of failure of the main braking system

7. Emergency brake assist - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emergency_brake_assist

   By interpreting the speed and force with which the brake pedal is pushed, the system detects if the driver is trying to execute an emergency stop, and if the brake pedal is not fully applied, the system overrides and fully applies the brakes until the anti-lock braking system (ABS) takes over to stop the wheels locking up.
