5:15 whats funny is that we had a driving school class at my highschool and we were taught to always pump the brakes after going through a puddle to clear off any water. What always confused me though was that even when I would offroad and completely submerge my brakes in water, the disks never lost braking force. Now it makes sense since US driving safety laws are mainly based on the older 80's and 90's cars that were more often equipped with drums that they would tell us that

I can recall multiple situations in late 90's onwards where I experienced drum brake failure, or loss of brake efficiency, and boy was it an unpleasant experience! You could feel the brakes losing efficiency and all you could do was hope for the best.

[@katydid5088]

I still have nightmares about a Chevy Suburban (I know it had drum brakes in the back but can't remember if they were in the front) on vacation careening down a steep mountainside with our trailer behind it. The breaks had gotten wet from a little bit of rain from a drainage gutter. We pulled over ASAP and took off the trailer (which we had planned to do at a designated parking space anyway) but road conditions were so poor (it was foggy on and off) that we ended up doing our sight seeing and hauling the trailer up afterwards. That vacation resulted in us doing our first drum to disc conversion. That thing was MUCH safer afterwards and I really hope ALL passenger cars have phased out drum brakes. I know there are characteristics that make them useful in long-haul trucking but for the average pleb whose just looking for safety and minimal loss in braking power, disk is the way to go.

[@rolf-smit]

I was thinking the same, it is a rally car based on the i20 body style, not the Veloster N.

[@zacharycardin6107]

This is the most important part!

[@ryurc3033]

You should check out the origin of Murphy's law, he was the first guy from the US military to suggest seatbelts in planes. But he also brought up they had more pilots die in car crashes than in the air. He did alot of the first tests on any type of safety restraint. During testing they installed some sensors backwards and didnt get any readings. So they put in place redundancy to make sure mistakes wouldnt happen again. Because anything that can go wrong will go wrong.

Question: Why Do Race Cars Don’t Have Airbags? My Answer: Weight Reduction

[@EugeneAinos]

was looking for this comment lol

[@eamh2002]

But still gotta add weight with hybrid systems to save the climate xD Well arent we saving the climate for us humans? Nice logic for racing teams :)

[@wierdchamp0]

Anything for the weight

[@simalcom]

Weight reduction bro

[@christianquinones1416]

Ima be honest i thought they meant air bag suspension when i saw “Why don’t race cars have air bags” then i watched the video and saw it was about safety lol.

[@Barberdan]

Makes complete sense. Though I suspected the safety device.

[@Dagoooo16]

Lmao me too !!

[@ellisjackson3355]

Smh lol

[@WarriorsPhoto]

LOL, I guess that makes sense. How would a race car do with an air suspension?

[@abluna1098]

You didn't watch the whole video if you didn't get the main point.

ow i feel bad for the peoples that used as “dummy” back then testing 3-point lap belt until the 60’s and 70’s till now

[@mre16]

If i remember correctly, there is a guy still doing stuff similar nowadays. I think he has some kinda thing that makes him extra durable? My knowledge is old (i think i saw it on some 2012ish discover/history channel show) but i seem to recall that there is some level of information you can gain from a human tester (aka, any biometric data at all) that a test dummy just cant give you.

[@wotwott2319]

It's still a thing today, they wear kevlar pads all over their body with patches to indicate damage and their main job is to do moves that can't be replicated by a hydraulic machine. (i.e: rolling the car by accidental sliding)

[@Shogunslossy]

@@mre16 you geeking me out I watched the same thing. They called him the human testing dummy or something like that? Was it on moth busters
