Correct answer

  • ASí.Yes.
Explanation

Under the General Traffic Regulations (RGC), brakes are considered an active safety device because they let the driver control speed and stop the vehicle safely. This is essential to avoid accidents and keep traffic flowing safely. A braking device must make it easier to control the vehicle's movement in any conditions. So the correct answer is 'Yes'.
