Are these car brakes worn?

This will repeat at some frequency dependent on the car.
Not if the car has shock absorbers.
Which of course all legal cars do.

well strictly not as MUCH if the car has shock absorbers. There are few
cars that are overdamped. Theres always a bit of 'overshoot and ring'
I'll be amazed if you can trigger it just by pulling the handbrake. It
would require a very large polar moment. I've only ever once felt it
getting out of hand on a bumpy road.
