Q: Are there some things I should not do

when driving down a hill?

A: Yes! These are important because if you

ignore them you could lose control and

have a serious accident.

• When driving downhill, avoid turns that take

you across the incline of the hill. A hill that

is not too steep to drive down may be

too steep to drive across. You could roll over

if you do not drive straight down.

• Never go downhill with the transmission in

NEUTRAL (N). This is called “free-wheeling.”

Your brakes will have to do all the work

and could overheat and fade.

Q: Am I likely to stall when going downhill?

A: It is much more likely to happen going

uphill. But if it happens going downhill, here is

what to do.

1. Stop your vehicle by applying the regular

brakes. Apply the parking brake.

2. Shift to PARK (P) and, while still braking,

restart the engine.

3. Shift back to a low gear, release the parking

brake, and drive straight down.

4. If the engine will not start, get out and

get help.
