    It’s a little hard to go by your description but if I was to take a guess I would say you are activating ABS.

    If you get the same sensation when you’re on a smooth road in the wet as you do on an uneven road I would say that it is the abs engaging and you will feel a pusling or vibrating sensation through the pedal.

    The uneven roads reduce the available traction to the vehicle to use for heavy braking.
