<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
bool handlingSetBrakeDeceleration ( handling theHandling, float deceleration )
</syntaxhighlight>

===Required Arguments===
*'''theHandling:''' the handling of which you want to change the brake deceleration.
*'''deceleration:''' the brake decelertion to set.

===Returns===
Returns ''true'' on success, ''false'' in case of failure.

==Example==
Select a player and damage its vehicle's brakes
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
function damageBreaks()
local player = getPlayerFromName("David") -- get a player
local vehicle = getPedOccupiedVehicle(player) -- get the vehicle David is in
handlingSetBrakeDeceleration(vehicle, 0.08) -- reduce brake's strength
outputChatBox("Your brakes are damaged. Drive careful!", player, 255, 0, 0)
