Jake Brakes and Hill Descent

The Jake Brake is a fairly simple component to slowing a semi truck, but knowing when to use a Jake Brake can be a bit more challenging. On this episode of Driving the Future, Dave interviews Austin Hill of Stoops Freightliner to get more information on how Jake Brakes work, hill descent, and when to brake on downhill grades.
