No. When your brakes overpower your tires, that's called a successful STOP or rather, a proper wheel/brake engagement! Conversely, when the car’s momentum overpowers the mechanical operation of the brakes and tires... hence why we now have ABS, that's a skid or something similar. My brakes work on ICE, as their job is to stop the rotation of the tires itself but, the momentum of the vehicle in conjunction with the ice's surface, I continue to slide. A modulating brake allows for a controlled stop over a distance v. And total brake engagement without control over a distance.
