Some power brakes are too
sensitive, according to recent
research by a U.S. team. The
Ontario Safety League says that
one of their findings was that
"average drivers consistently
stop in shorter distances when
their cars require significant
brake pedal force to reach high
decelerations than with very
sensitive power brakes."
