Back in the day when we had vehicle inspections I was driving an Austin
1100. (4 door Mini). One of the tests was a brake test where the
requirement was to lock up all four wheels. The Austin had a pressure
release valve in the rear brake line that was designed to prevent this.
(primitive ABS?)  I failed the test and explained to them why. I was
instructed to remove this device in order to pass the test. Go figure.
