Safety requirements; means of applying brakes
Sec. 1. A motor vehicle other than a motorcycle or motor-driven
cycle, when operated upon a highway, must be equipped with brakes
adequate to control the movement of and to stop and hold the
vehicle. The brakes must include two (2) separate means of applying
the brakes, each of which means must apply the brakes to at least two
(2) wheels. If these two (2) separate means of applying the brakes are
connected in any way, the means must be constructed so that failure
of one (1) part of the operating mechanism does not leave the motor
vehicle without brakes on at least two (2) wheels.
As added by P.L.2-1991, SEC.7.
