This article (https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/motors/11320530/electric-vehicle-car-brakes-malfunction-glasgow-police/ https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/motors/11320530/electric-ve...), which features a picture of the driver looking displeased, doesn't mention the emergency break but says that he tried everything, even turning off the engine. Police had engineers from the car company on the phone trying to come up with ways to stop the car. I have to assume the emergency brake came up as an option.
Maybe activating the emergency brake requires using a touch screen?
