weird braking issue

ok, i noticed today that when going downhill, if i slam on the brakes a lock up the rear wheels the rear end always starts to move to the right, effectively turning the car left

is this normal, a problem, what?

If the pads are all the same and you've bled the system you might have one of the calipers going bad?

When you lock up the rears they'll always try to pass you. The solution is to not lock them up.
