You are driving down a long steep hill. You suddenly notice your brakes are not working as well as normal. What is the usual cause of this?

أنت تقود من تل طويل منحدر, فجأة تكتشف أن المكابح لا تشتغل جيدا, ما السبب في ذلك؟

Explanation: This is more likely to happen on vehicles fitted with drum brakes but can apply to disc brakes as well. Using a lower gear will assist the braking and help you to keep control of your vehicle.
