SUBJECT 1 · ROAD RULES

Besides using the brakes, what effective auxiliary methods help control speed when driving downhill?

A
Coasting in neutral
B
Use engine braking.
C
Release the clutch and glide.
D
Shut down the engine and glide.
ANSWER · B
Coasting or shutting off the engine downhill is forbidden. Besides the brakes, you can use engine braking: shift to a lower gear and use the lower gear's inertia to slow the car. Try shifting from 3rd to 1st gear without using the brakes; the car will shake a bit and slow down quickly.
