Brow of hill

When driving up an uphill gradient, slightly reduce pressure on the accelerator immediately before reaching the brow of the hill. Use the vehicle's own impetus to drive over the top of the hill.

This style of driving prevents:

• the vehicle from lifting off the ground on the brow of a hill
• loss of traction
• the vehicle from traveling too quickly down the other side
