VEHICLE BRAKING SYSTEM

A vehicle braking system includes a processing device, a linear actuator, a master cylinder, and a braking caliper. The processing device is configured to receive a heartbeat from an operating vehicle. The linear actuator is communicatively coupled to the processing device. The master cylinder is coupled to the linear actuator. Upon not receiving the heartbeat within a threshold period of time, the processing device is configured to transmit a signal to the linear actuator to cause a force to be transmitted to the master cylinder, actuating the braking caliper, and causing the operating vehicle to stop.
