Correct answer
Yes.
Yes. Brakes are active safety because they reduce speed and stop the vehicle to help prevent a crash or reduce its severity. Their effectiveness depends on their condition, tyres, grip and other factors; they do not guarantee avoiding every crash or make the driver react faster. Being a mechanical system does not prevent classification as active safety.
