Line 20:
In RCT2, this breakdown is known as "Brakes Failure".  Reverse-incline launched coasters, as well as most powered launch coasters, are now affected by this breakdown in a similar manner to single-train rides, as the station brakes no longer stop trains moving backwards. Block brakes are unaffected by this breakdown. In all other respects, it is the same as its RCT1 iteration.
 
In RCT3, the severity of this breakdown becomes a non-issue on closed-continuous circuit rides as vehicles never crash regardless of how hard they impact another vehicle in front of them.
 
Although this breakdown primarily affects roller coasters, there are three water rides that may experience brakes failures: the [[Log Flume]], the [[River Rapids]], and the [[River Ride]]. In the case of the aforementioned water rides, however, the vehicles are typically not travelling at a sufficient speed to crash, and so will instead just flow through the station and repeat the course or stop upon colliding with another vehicle stopped at the station.
