Trail braking
01
a technique used in driving where the brake is applied while turning into a corner to control speed and improve vehicle stability
Example
Racers often employ trail braking to maintain optimal speed through corners without losing grip on the track surface.
Trail braking helps drivers manage sharp turns by gradually easing off the brakes as they steer into the corner.
When approaching a tight bend, professional drivers rely on trail braking to smoothly decelerate while maintaining momentum through the turn.
The key to effective trail braking is balancing braking force with steering input to maintain control of the vehicle's trajectory.
In advanced driving courses, participants learn how trail braking can enhance both safety and performance on challenging roads.
