i get this on one particular road going to uni. its quite dangerous as when i brake it instantly pulls to the left and you have to counter the force with the steering wheel, and i can't release the brake as it will pull back. fucking annoying.. 
 
just one road this happens on, i've asked all my mates who drive that take that road and non have the same problem. 
 
so i'm baffled myself!

sounds like either your brakes or your wheels want balancing and tracking looked at
