Complementary braking system for a motor vehicle

A complementary braking system for removing liquids and solid debris from a motor vehicle's pathway and applying frictional contact in front of two or more of a motor vehicle's tires to provide slowing and prevent further movement of the vehicle, said complementary braking system consisting of:

• a resilient blade disposed forwardly of the motor vehicle's tires, fixed to a motor vehicle's frame above a road surface and said resilient blade including an upwardly curved leading edge followed by a generally horizontal flat portion and wherein said resilient blade is made of steel and has a layer of a hard rubber compound on a lower surface of the leading edge and generally flat horizontal portion;
• a pair of releasable latches maintaining said resilient blade in a raised position out of contact with the road surface until released by pressure on a vehicle's brake pedal;
• a pendulum including a metal ball for releasing said latches in response to a forward movement of said metal ball in response to initial deceleration to allow said resilient blade to contact the road surface;
• a pair of coiled steel high impact springs and a pair of coiled steel lower impact springs for cushioning the impact of the resilient blade contacting the road surface and the blade contacting bumps in the road;
• and
• a pair of electric motors and hydraulic pumps for returning said resilient blade to an elevated latched position above the surface of the road.
