...had to slam on tonight - to avoid the idiot who wanted my side of the road more than his own ?...can anyone tell me - what is the feeling through the brake pedal like? It felt, to me, like the pedal kicked me back...

...cheers mate...it's a weird feeling the first (hopefully, the only) time it happens. In 45 years of driving it's the only time I've ever had to hit the brakes that hard...
When I was an IAM observer one excercise I always carried out with a new associate was to find a quiet piece of road & then ask then to brake as hard as possible from about 30-40mph. This got them used to the feel of the ABS working.
There have been reports of drivers releasing the brakes when the ABS operated as they thought the pulsing was a fault.
...after having experienced the "feel" of ABS working, I think you've got a point - new, or less experienced, drivers should acquaint themselves with it as soon as possible...it definitely saved me from an expensive bill...
