Q: What should you avoid when using an independent endurance brake (retarder) on slippery roads?
Correct answer:
The drive wheels locking
Explanation
The endurance brake (retarder) usually operates by applying resistance, via the transmission, to the vehicle's driven wheels. If the road is slippery, the tyres may lose grip and the wheels will lock.
