While approaching a red light , applied brakes & pedal went to floor . Truck went thru red light & intersection. Coasted truck to stop while trying to pump brakes .

Found fluid leaking under drivers side compartment from rusted brake lines running on top of frame. Called aaa & had truck towed to repair shop.
"I was driving south on rt-13 in bristol township, PA. I had my wife with me coming back from walmart, traffic light turned red and brakes went to the floor and put on the emergency brake and luckily stopped before hitting anyone! brake fluid was leaking driver side near gas tank, there was no warning lights on dash or no reason to believe my brakes would fail.
Had the 2 main brake lines that go from resovoir to abs control under carriage on frame fail and severely leak out brake fluid so I had no brakes at all in a very short amount of time. Luckily I was on a side street and not on highway.
