You're about to drive down a steep hill. What should you do to control the speed of your vehicle?


Explanation

"When travelling down a steep hill, your vehicle will tend to increase speed. This will make it more difficult for you to stop. To maintain control and prevent the vehicle from running away • select a lower gear - the engine will then help to control your speed • use the footbrake to maintain control."
