If the belt you are talking about snaps, you will still have power braking (all power brakes are vaccuum operated in passenger vehicles) and 2GNT water pumps are driven by the timing belt. And at highway speeds turning without the pump is not even close to being difficult, and you can roll your windows down since your A/C compressor will not be driven either.
