Total brake failure. Not nice. Managed not to hit anything.

I'm slightly vexed.

Glad to hear nothing happened to the car.

How did the brakes fail?

Car is in the shop now. I think we lost a brake line or caliper. Will know more Monday/Tuesday I guess.

I'm just happy I wasn't on maximum attack down a B road at the time.

I know what has failed (and indeed why I lost all the brakes on a dual circuit system). I don't want to say any more just now. Hope you'll understand why.
