I'd hate to have to prove to a judge that my front brake will skid the front wheel on clean level dry pavement... And its funny that the officer's (or was it judge's?) argument for muscle failure or whatever would be identical to some sort of mechanical failure. Seems this judge does not possess the intellectual abilities most people want in their legal system. Think about it this way, at least he's not in charge of people's lives (like some criminal judges-though maybe not in oregon).
