Far more under the latter than the former...

Actually any reasonably good modern car should be able to manage 1g braking - I can't remember what the MOT 
tests here specify as a minimum, but I think it's 0.3g - below that it fails the test as unsafe, so it's 
expected that most cars will be well above this.
