Engine Braking?



I saw a sign like this in Lake St. Louis today. If anybody is hittin the streets out there, be sure to use your handbrake.

Re: Engine Braking?

I love those signs. I used to drive big rigs and that sign makes me deliberately use the engine brake or Jake brake as its called when I see it. its basically an exhaust engine compression brake.

Re: Engine Braking?
