Always stop the vehicle using the footbrake, then apply the
temporary handbrake (for short stops) or the parking brake (for
longer stops) before leaving the vehicle.
A medium application of pressure on the footbrake is normally
sufficient to stop the truck. If the brakes are always used at full
capacity, there will be premature wear to the rear axle brake
components and tires. Therefore, only apply the brakes to full
capacity if the traffic conditions require you to do so.
