I had my emergency brake fail to hold one time while launching into the CT river. The truck, trailer and boat were heading down the ramp with me on the boat, which was still hooked to the winch. A DEP officer was standing near my truck and thankfully jumped into my pick-up and hit the brakes. Egg on my face again. After that I always shut off the engine and put it in gear.
