A vacuum booster has a shiftable diaphragm within a fixed housing. The fixed housing has forward and rearward ends. A piston and a vacuum port extend through the forward end of the housing for air to flow to and from the fixed housing. A quantity of brake fluid is within a master cylinder. A sensor is adapted to send an electronic signal in response to identified potentially damaging movement. A motion imparter is adapted to be activated in response to the electronic signal. The motion imparter is adapted to shift the shiftable diaphragm forwardly from a retracted orientation to an advanced orientation to advance the piston and convey brake fluid to the brakes for stopping the vehicle independent of driver involvement.
