The heavier the vehicle, the more work the brakes must do to stop it and the more heat they absorb. But the brakes, tires, springs and shock absorbers on heavy vehicles are designed to work best when the vehicle is fully loaded. Empty trucks require greater stopping distances, because an empty vehicle has less traction. It can bounce and lock up its wheels, giving much poorer braking. (This is not usually the case with buses.

Why should you not rub frostbitten areas?
son4ous [18]
Literally frostbite is the term that is used to describe an area of tissue with that has lost the ability to function due to not having much blood flow due to to a extreme low in temperature. If you begin rubbing a frostbitten section you could of course exaggerate the severity of the wound by breaking the fragile area and forming wounds to which bacteria enter. Additionally you could start influencing blood flow into the area which could then start the process of gangrene (decay), which could bring toxic byproduct of the decay into the body, which could begin shutting down your body starting from the kidneys... A common disease from something like this is rhabdomylosis.
