    That’s because brakes are made from asbestos and every time you hit the break, they wear down. I work on old buildings and people always comment about working around asbestos but the people standing on street corners are exposed to far more than I am on a day to day basis.

      Brake pads havent been made from asbestos for almost half a century.

      Is what i was going to comment until i learned that complete bans were never enacted so imported brake pads can still contain asbestos.

      None of mine do, anyway.
