The 2 main ways to check if your brakes are still usable are by looking and listening. The first step in visually inspecting your brakes is to look at the spaces between the wheel spokes. You should see at least ¼ inch of pad. If there is any less you should get your brakes inspected and changed as soon as possible. The way to audibly inspect your brakes is to listen for a humming or squealing sound coming from your wheels when you brake hard. If you hear something most likely it’s a metal shim called an indicator giving you an audible warning.
