The dri ver s hould have a t horough knowl edge of brake s ys t em operat ion and accept ed general performance guideli nes tomake good comparis ons and detect performance concerns .
An experienced brake t echnician will al ways es t abl is h a route that wi ll be us ed for all brake di agnos is road t es t s . Theroads s elected will be reasonably s moot h and level.
