The worst I had was on my Cub Cadet zero turn mower, a tree branch caught the brake and yanked it on. The brakes engage in the hydrostatic drives of the machine, and on the left side it engaged the brake instantly, and sheared off the input shaft of the pump side of the hydrostatic drive.

That was expensive to get the parts to rebuild the hydrostatic drive unit!
