What is the minimum thickness of car brake pad allowed for safe driving?

For safe driving, the minimum thickness of a car brake pad should not be less than 2mm. If the thickness of a brake pad goes below 2mm, it can cause metal-to-metal contact between the brake pad and the rotor, leading to reduced braking performance, overheating, and subsequent damage to the braking system.

It's important to regularly check the thickness of your brake pads and have them replaced when they reach the minimum recommended thickness to ensure optimal braking performance and safety on the road.
