Unfortunately I had an accident in my pride and joy yesterday - so much for my smugness at not kerbing my alloys yet .
When it happened I felt that when I slammed on my brakes I just skidded straight to the scene of the accident. Camera footage seems to confirm my thinking.
From the video I can see the point when under braking the car points slightly to the right (could be me steering) and then just skids straight into the back of the truck.
I can’t believe I will ever be able to prove the electronics didn’t kick in properly but wondered if anyone else has experience of the car skidding under emergency braking rather than ABS taking over.
I spend too much time on this forum and don’t recall or could find any threads on this. Apologies if I missed them.
I’ll share a picture as I know I’d want to see one out of curiosity.
