All, thank you for the comments and information. I have never been in a Tesla or any other EV, and I was taking the "one pedal driving" literally. The clarification on having a brake pedal and hydraulics for applying the brakes manually is appreciated. Yes, I used the term "locking the wheels" and yes you are correct the ABS will override causing the brakes to rapidly go on and off. I have had this happen once, interesting experience. In any case this was an interesting discussion.
