thing
to know is this: let
your engine do some of the slowing
down. Shift to
a
lower gear when you
go down a steep or long
hill.
A
CAUTION:
If
you
don’t shift down, your brakes
could get
so
hot
that
they
wouldn’t
work
well.
You
would then
have
poor braking
or
even none

Know how
to
go uphill. You may
want to shift down to a lower gear.
The lower gears help cool your engine
and transaxle, and you can climb the
hill
better.
Stay
in
your own lane when driving
on two-lane roads in,hills or
mountains. Don’t swing wide or cut
across the center of the road. Drive at
speeds that let you stay
in
your own
lane.
As
you go over the top of a hill, be
alert. There could be something
in
your lane, like a stalled car or an
accident.
You may see highway signs on
mountains that warn of special
problems. Examples are long grades,
passing or no-passing zones, a falling
rocks area,
or
winding roads.
Be
alert
to
these and take appropriate action.
