Is the low air pressure warning required to work the same way whether it's tested during a pre-trip inspection or triggers unexpectedly while driving?
Pick an answer
Correct!
Not quite. The correct answer is highlighted.
Correct answer to question 58 (Air Brakes): Yes, it must activate at the same pressure threshold whether it happens during a planned check or an actual drop in pressure on the road
Why
The warning device is built to trigger at the same pressure threshold regardless of when it happens, since its whole purpose is to reliably alert the driver whenever pressure actually drops that low.
