Emery,
In 39 years with the same coach I have never had a brake failure. I now have all wheel disc brakes with a Branscombe parking brake. In case of a brake failure I would use the parking brake and gears to slow down and get stopped. I also notice since I travel around 3 to 5 mph below the speed limit I never have anyone in front of me. I also test the brakes before I have to make a turn off. As I get older, I get more careful. I also check all fluid levels before going on a trip. Most braking systems will give a little warning of some kind before going out if you recognize it.
