The brakes will still work just not as good and you will have to use a lot of force on the pedal. Since most of us are now used to brakes with the booster, if you are caught in a fast braking situation, you may not be able to react with the right amount of force to get slowed down quick enough. I would not recommend driving until it's fixed but if you do need to drive just leave extra room in between vehicle in front of you.
