Abstract
A fluid brake system for a vehicle includes a pair of separate brake valves, each normally held in a non-braking position by pressure applied thereto through an additional valve. The additional valve may be moved to a position wherein such pressure is released from the brake valves, whereupon the brake valves move to braking positions.
