My brake line blew out on the highway last Tuesday
Was driving home on I-35 near Austin when the pedal went straight to the floor. Turns out a rusted spot on the rear line finally let go. Anyone else run into hidden rust on lines that looked fine from the top?

Did you hit any puddles before it went out?

Yeah that's the thing with old cars these days. The salt and road grime just eats away at stuff you can't even see until it's too late. It's like how phone batteries swell up inside - you don't notice until the screen pops off.
