Cool ABS Brake failure

'99, F150 4X4

My ABS light was not on, I noticed that my ABS was engaging at slow speeds. My brakes completely failed. I was pressing on my brakes they became hard and I continued to roll. I got in an accident. I was pressing on my brakes very hard. Is this ABS or another problem, was it the ABS sending a signal to not allow my brakes to work? Any ideas or suggestions would be great.

I wonder if this is a lawyer fishing for a lawsuit and wanting me to tell him to route
around the abs servo motor and modulate your brakes like a real man don't let a
robot do it for you!! Of course this is in NO way advocating or explaining a way to
reroute you brake lines to remove abs from the circuit.
