I feel like anyone could take their car for a nice legal run with police escort if you call 911 and say the car won't stop, then after several miles stop and say everything is fine again

Im pretty sure if everybody was put in this situation common sense would go out the window. Your mind would go blank and you would just buckle up for the ride. Only until you come to a complete stop or after everything is said an done. Then you say oh i should of did this or that. Im just shocked that this went on for 60miles and not one accident.

So... I guess the brakes do work then...
