Herbert, I drive a Honda Accord and I have several times tried to practice just this. It does not have ABS (it is a 2001 model). I have never succeeded in getting it to do anything but snowplow straight forward. I can drive forward at 30MPH and suddenly turn hard and it just keeps going straight. I believe it is the same case for hard braking. It just seems that the design is just so stable.
