This reminds me of when my daughter was learning to drive. I wanted to
have her experience just how well brakes could work (sans WOT, don't want
to get into that) to bring a car to a stop. I had her drive out to this
long straight stretch of country road, get up to about 50 MPH and apply
the brakes with a quick steadily increasing pressure, much like threshold
braking. There was this loud thump from the back seat and when I looked
back there was poor Jazz the Airedale laying on the floor with this WTF
look on his face. We had forgotten that he had come along for the ride.
