Slow down at the top of a hill to make up for the increased braking distance required on the down slope. Before starting down a steep hill, shift to a lower gear to let your engine assist you as a braking force. Never coast down hills in neutral or with the clutch disengaged because you’ll be relying too much on your brakes and they may not hold.

Don’t pass near the crest of a hill because your sight distance ends at the hilltop.

It may be irritating to follow slow-moving vehicles up a hill but because your sight distance is limited, you should remain patient and follow all the way over the crest before passing. Observe the pavement markings and road signs.
