A method and a braking system are described. The braking system includes a rotor connected to a wheel of the vehicle, a speed sensor measuring a vehicle speed, a first brake including a first piston and at least one brake pad coupled to the rotor, a second brake including a second piston and a brake pad coupled to the rotor, and a brake controller configured to activate the first piston to engage or disengage the first brake with the rotor, receive signal from the speed sensor to determine a stopping distance, compute a braking threshold based on the stopping distance, and activate the second piston to engage or disengage the second brake with the rotor based on the braking threshold.
