Why do Alpine ski bindings have brakes?

Ski brakes do not assist you in stopping while skiing but are used to keep your ski from skiing away during a fall. When you are released from your bindings the lever on your ski brake flips down and digs into the snow surface. As a result, your ski is rescued from a life as an orphan.
