Text
(a)Subject to section 4 of this chapter, a motor
vehicle, when operated upon a highway, must be equipped with brakes
adequate to control the movement of and to stop and hold the vehicle.
(b)A motor vehicle other than a motorcycle or motor driven cycle
must be equipped with brakes that include two (2) separate means of
applying the brakes, each of which means must apply the brakes to at
least two (2) wheels. If these two (2) separate means of applying the
brakes are connected in any way, the means must be constructed so that
failure of one (1) part of the operating mechanism does not leave the
motor vehicle without brakes on at least two (2) wheels.
