I'm talking full air brakes here. Electric brakes are next to non-existent in Europe. They probably will be, untill the automotive industry adopts the 48 Volt standard for on board electricity like airco compressor, electric windows, and keep the small things like lights just 12 volt like it used to be.
some manufacturers are talking about it, and it is expected that many car makers get a split 12/48 volt system in cars within 10 years.
So, which will function better, if we keep the way of actuating out of it ?
My boss used to have a Ford Sierra. Every time he braked hard in rainy weather and then drove through water with hot disks, they warped. After 3 sets of new disks, he decided it was time to change for a car with better brakes.
Over here in Europe, i've never seen a low bed trailer with disk brakes. Only flat deck and box trailers.
