Stomp the brakes and steer around the obstacle. The key is to not release the brake pedal and keep applying pressure even though you will feel vibrations in the pedal and hear noises. Let the brake system prevent a skid.

Slam on the brakes and steer around the obstruction. Do not pump the brakes. The ABS will do this for you. Be prepared for noises and a shudder in the brake pedal which is normal.
No. The emergency brake uses the same brakes. It'll be equally ineffective.
use your emergency brake if in motion, if not in motion get new brakes!
Put your foot on the brake and keep it firmly there as long as you want to stop. ABS will do the rest.
Yes, but remember to control steering and aim for the side of the road or the first clear area.
Suicide brakes, also known as emergency brakes, can be effectively implemented to prevent accidents and ensure safety on the road by ensuring they are regularly maintained and tested for proper functionality. Drivers should be trained on how to use them in emergency situations and be aware of the potential risks of not using them correctly. Additionally, road signs and markings should be in place to alert drivers to the presence of suicide brakes and remind them of their importance in preventing accidents.
Stomp your brakes and keep strong pressure on them while at the same time steering around the obstruction if possible. You will hear lots of noise and feel vibration in the brake pedal. All of this is normal so do not release the brake pedal.
emergency brake isn't for use during emergencies....that's why they changed it to "parking brake" people were pulling them in emergencies and losing control
Spring brakes are intended to be used solely as parking brakes. If you're in a desperate situation, you can use them as an emergency brake, but if you're grossing out at 80k and going down Vale Pass, all you're going to accomplish is to burn up your brakes and possibly cause your truck to catch fire... best to just hit the runaway ramp at that point.
Bike brakes squeak due to dirt, debris, or misalignment. To prevent it, regularly clean and inspect your brakes, ensure proper alignment, and use high-quality brake pads.
Stomp the brake and steer the vehicle. You should try this at least a couple of times just to know what it feels like. The brake pedal will pulsate and you will hear some really weird noises. This is normal and indicates the system is working. Once you stomp the brakes in an emergency do not release the brake. Simply steer the vehicle out of danger. People are startled by what happens and release the brake, which is the wrong thing to do.
