What should you do if your brakes fail?

  1. Use your hazard lights

  2. Tailgate the cars in front of you

  3. Shift to neutral and steer away from traffic

  4. Increase your speed

The correct answer is: Shift to neutral and steer away from traffic

If your brakes fail, you should always shift to neutral and steer away from traffic. This allows you to maintain control of the vehicle and prevents any potential collisions or accidents. Using your hazard lights or increasing your speed can be dangerous and make the situation worse. Tailgating the cars in front of you can also lead to accidents and should be avoided.
