TALPA tables were specifically created in the US to get over the subjective nature of runway assessments and to prevent these accidents, but they continue at a similar rate, the pilots taking verbally reported braking actions in violation of the explicit instructions that TALPA braking actions may only be downgraded, not upgraded, by ATC or pilot reports. The guys are simply not bothering to do the calculations. It is complacency, nothing else.
