The term "ebrakes" stands for electronic brakes or emergency brakes. It refers to the brake system that operates electrically and helps to stop a vehicle quickly in case of an emergency. However, there are many synonyms for ebrakes, such as parking brakes, handbrakes, foot brakes, and emergency brakes. Each term indicates the function of a stopping mechanism or a braking system used in different vehicles. Parking brakes are typically hand-operated and used to prevent a vehicle from rolling down a slope. Handbrakes are usually mounted on the center console or the dashboard of a vehicle. Foot brakes are the standard braking system used in most vehicles. Emergency brakes are used to stop a vehicle suddenly to prevent a collision or an accident.
