Until recently we were accelerating, however, there is a red light in the distance. We will not be able to maintain this speed. We will, in fact, need to slow down significantly if we are going to come to a safe speed and obey the laws of traffic.
***BRAKING*** First the foot depresses the break pedal and the brakes begin to be activated as the braking fluid is then transfered to the brakes.
***BRAKING*** Mechanical advantage and hydraulic force multiplication allow the brakes to work. Otherwise the mere moving of a foot would be insufficient to slow the car which weighs more than you. Way more.
***BRAKING*** This force is then transmitted to tires via friction which eventually slows the car.
***BRAKING*** We stop at the red light.
