Sometimes they don't but then sometimes they do. It takes some time for the heat to go through pad material and caliper and get the fluid over the boil point. It sometimes happens as your finishing your braking and they go soft and can take appropriate action. But there's nothing preventing you from having perfectly good brakes after one brake zone and none on the next. This is why people stress the importance of good clean fluid and good cooling. If there was a simple way to predict when your brakes were going to give out people wouldn't be as crazy about them.
