Driving across an incline that’s too steep
will
make your vehicle roll over. You could be
seriously injured or killed.
If
you have any
doubt about the steepness
of
the incline, don’t
drive across
it.
Find another route instead.
Q:
What
if
I’m driving across an incline that’s not
too steep, but
I
hit
some loose gravel and start
to slide downhill. What should
I
do?
A:
If you feel your vehicle starting to slide sideways,
turn downhill. This should help straighten out the
vehicle and prevent the side slipping. However,
a much better way to prevent this is
to
get out and
”walk the course”
so
you know what the surface
is like before you drive it.
