There are only two reasons to pull the emergency brake in a moving vehicle: either you’re messing around and making the car fishtail was the desired outcome, or your regular brakes failed and you need to stop fast instead of just coasting to a halt. In the latter case, the vast majority of people will lose control of the car immediately and it will be absolutely terrifying experience.
Go pull a handbrake on a highway speed simulating an emergency situation and then report back. I’ll wait.
I’ve done it. With the once-upon-a-time-cars it was just a metal wire connected to the drum brakes, you could easily modulate it.
moving the goalposts already are we?
