ADEM.KERİM Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 Trailer brakes are generally my preference. You can stop more easily with the retarder and trailer brake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Rossoo770s. Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 Never used before,the time I tried to use it I made a 360 (lukily I was alone).. I always use retarder and brakes to brake. REMEMBER that you are playing a SIMULATOR GAME and this game is NOT a RACING GAME. If you like races,maybe you're on the wrong game.

-TurboStar- Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 no never used that before, when i brake i always use retarder and engine brake for a slower slow down, keeping distance you have enough time to brake so engine brake and retarder are my best options Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granite [SVK] Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 Pressing the brake pedal activates both truck and trailer brakes always, irl and in the game, so in that sense, everyone is using trailer brakes. Standalone trailer brake control (usually a lever by the seat or on the steering column) irl is only intended for tug tests or sliding tandems, extending trailers etc., or if you want to save tractor brakes, jacknife, set the trailer wheels on fire and get fired, In the game it has nor real purpose. Modern trailers have all the automatic electronic systems like ABS and EBS that help prevent loss of control. If you really want to save tractor and trailer brakes in that matter as well, you use exhaust brake and retarder irl, and you can simulate that in the game too, typically, you don't see trucks slam braking, do you? 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zhang Cheng Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 In the case of high-speed turning, I think I will use trailer braking, thinking that this can improve the stability of the vehicle in the case of high-speed turning, so I recommend using trailer braking. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
