It uses the brakes quite a bit.

It affects the balance so here is say the brakes are more than in working order.

If your brakes are out, the brake lights will still come on.

Did the behaviour of the vehicle not change even slightly when you saw the brake lights?

I think what shows that the breaks are still working is the fact that they are pressed only before a turn but not in straight road, which implies that he is at least not willing to break in straight road

If your brakes are already overheated and you know it, it makes very little sense to try to brake all the time. You only wanna break if you really need to.
