Exhaust Brakes

In South Africa trucks are forbidden to use exhaust brakes during certain times of the day or night. Using of exhaust brakes is also illegal near hospitals and schools. This is done to curb noise pollution. Which is why their department of transport and safety has placed such signs in strategic areas. Failure to abide by set rules results in stiff penalties.

Old trucks and buses especially UD trucks and buses (mk210) and old isuzus were notorious. Nowadays engine brakes are more quiet.

I had to research what this exhaust brakes are na bado sijaelewa.

Frenno, frrrrrrrrr cha cha cha, frrrrrrrrr cha.
Alafu huku ma3 zingine zina whistle kwa exhaust, haki i hate that sound. Those guys who do that should be shot twice in the heart

Okay.Lakini ukitaka kushika emergency brake mahali kama hapo utafanya nini?Ama trucks zina brake mbili?

What about in a situation where the exhaust brake is fully automatic, how does the driver deal with that?

Ama aulize Chloe
