Post Crash Brake

Summary

The post crash brake controller applies the brakes when a crash is detected. It is a safety feature found on some modern cars.

When it detects sudden deceleration on either the X or Y axis, it starts by pressing the brakes until the speed is under 0.5m/s, at which point it will apply the parking brake to hold the car in place.

The system will also activate the hazard lights once it has stopped the car.
