Jake brake made to slow down the truck, however, the driver did look like they were speeding in the first place.

I’ve never had an accident either, but I’ve been running into a bunch of times been running into by one guy twice while I was part had my hood ripped off twice while I was parked, and actually had one guy shoot out in front of me from a construction zone, coming straight across all the cones from where he was sitting 5 foot off the lane which was a single lane and I knew if I hit my brakes, I was gonna T-bone him and kill him so I floored the Excelerator by doing so I did not T-bone him instead, he bounced off my fuel tank and tires, and I saved his life!

It’s a repurposed GAU-8/A Avenger 30 mm Gatling gun from an A-10 Warthog mounted under the front bumper. Clears things in front of him. Less wear and tear on the brakes! 🤔🧐😂

There were signs where I lived in Alaska saying do not use Jake brakes. They said they can cause Avalanches.

The noise is typically called “Jake Breaking”, which is downshifting the transmission into a slower gear speed to reduce the vehicle speed & not having to use the brakes that could cause the brakes to lock causing the Vehicle & trailer too slide & or “Jackknife “ & cause a accident ‼️

if you look closely, the truck never even slows down, so it must be the HORN, just a little out of tune.
