Peerless i fie ~ «= Detecting Unequalized Braking "One Rided" Braking Invites Skidding And Causes Undue Tire Wear OBSERVATION of the wheel marks left on the road surface, when 8 sudden stop has been made, often gives valuable information as to whether brake adjustment is correct or not. It is easy to tell, from the rear wheel tracks, whether neither wheel was locked, whether both of them became locked and their tires slid on the road or whether one was locked and slipped while the other dfd not cease rotating until the car came to rest. The featureless mark of the slipping tire is readily dis tinguished from that of the rolling tine, in which tread and chain prints are clear cut. If one wheel is on a more slippery surface than the other the former may slide and the other keep fits footing, even though the braking effect is the same on both, but with both wheels on equally firm em raises a ing prevails. When braking is largely through ome Wheel, the tendency toward skidding, when a sudden stop is made, is considerably increased and thus approximate equality of brake action ley or muddy roads. When a wheel locks and its tire slips on the read, the tread rubber is rapidly worn down and the minimum total damage from this action oceurs when the two tires share equally In fis effects, while concentrating slipping on one tire, by making it do a major part of the braking, causes the mamimnm tread damage.
