I've been in a couple of equipment-failure panic situations, and didn't react too well at all. It's not at all like a situation where someone pulls in front of you or runs a light, and you have to react, with a car that functions as expected.
I've got quite a bit of racing experience, and always considered myself a very alert and good driver with good mechanical knowledge of cars. But, when that pedal goes to the floor without warning, either the gas or the brake, all reason goes out the window.

Even the act of actually steering around an accident while holding the brakes in full ABS mode is a lot tougher to actually do than it would seem. You tend to just hammer the pedal and grip the wheel and hope it stops.

But, I did notice the roof on that 126 didn't even flex as they drug it up the bank. They probably can flip it over and put it back on the road.
