That's true in perfect conditions, but also false in several practical cases.
If the driver (incorrectly) brakes lightly for a period of time, with the gas pedal stuck, it will overheat the brakes and/or boil the fluid. At this point, even vigorous application of brakes will have marginal to no effect.
