I haven't heard of it ever activating except in the incident/accident flights. You wouldn't hear about it unless the activation was triggered by egregious pilot error and you're scouring aviation news sites. It's not fine if the wheel position sensor fails and this causes the car to slam on the brakes going 65mph down the highway. Been there, done that. It's an unpleasant failure mode, but it is survivable.
