Right, that's the problem, the car didn't have ABS. ABS hasn't really been around as standard equipment for that long, not being equipped with it hardly means the car is "poor equipment". That would be like blaming someone's inability to back into a parking spot on a lack of a back-up camera.
And you don't pulse the pedal; that's what ABS does when you stand on it, which is actually inferior to threshold breaking, which you can't really do with ABS.
I genuinely feel bad for the kid, who hasn't done something that they really didn't think through and then got bitten for it? But it ain't the fault of a missing feature...
Yeah I hate people. That's why I have low tolerance for reckless endangerment of people.
I have had people I know die due to the callous behavior of other drivers. It doesn't matter what age you are, if you put the lives of others at risk you should pay the price.
