Which of the following actions must be taken when the warning light of the brake system turns red during driving?
Description
Vehicle owner's manual issued by its manufacturer and appendix no. 1 to the Regulation of the Minister of Transport, Construction and Maritime Economy of 13 July 2012 (item 1019).
Explanation
Correct answer: Stop the vehicle and check the level of brake fluid and the operation of the brakes.
The red warning light for the braking system signals a serious fault, e.g., a critically low level of brake fluid or a system failure. You should stop the vehicle safely as soon as possible and call for assistance. Continuing to drive is extremely dangerous as the brakes could fail at any moment.
