A car can break faster than a car can and be WAY more stable. They cannot, generally speaking, keep up with the acceleration of a bike.
When in trouble on the road, it is preferable to wick the throttle to get past any danger as opposed to stomp on the break in a panic and run the risk of braking too hard with your back break and having the rear tire come around on you or having the car break with you and still come in your lane.
