GOOD BRAKING PRACTICES
o Don’t coast down hills with the ve-
hicle out of gear. This may be ex-
tremely hazardous.
Keep the vehicle in gear at all times,
use the brakes to slow down, then
shift to a lower gear so that engine

speed.
o Don’t "ride" the brake pedal. Rest-
ing your foot on the brake pedal
while driving can be dangerous be-
cause it can result in the brakes
overheating and losing their effec-
tiveness. It also increases the wear
of the brake components.
o If a tire goes flat while you are
driving, apply the brakes gently and
keep the vehicle pointed straight
ahead while you slow down. When
you are moving slowly enough for it
to be safe to do so, pull off the road
and stop in a safe place.
The safety features of an ABS
equipped vehicle should not be
tested by high speed driving or
cornering. This could endanger the
safety of yourself or others.
