<p>The paper deals with the evaluation of service brake braking of a selected group of vehicles depending on the wear of brake system‘s parts. During the research, the technical condition of brake systems, the degree of wear of brake discs, brake pads, and the measurement of braking forces using a roller brake tester was monitored and evaluated on a sample of 16 intercity buses for a period of three years. The measurement was carried out on 2 selected intercity buses SOR C 10.5 and IVECO Crossway. The maximum braking forces on both axles of buses were measured using a roller brake tester. Then, the percentage braking of the vehicle was calculated and compared with the minimum required braking according to applicable legislation. Based on the inspection of technical condition of brake pads and discs, it was possible to detect the wear and tear of these elements of the brake system (which was manifested during the inspection of the vehicle on the roller brake tester), and it was also possible to record the insufficient value of the required minimum braking during the calculation.</p>
