Braking
Close throttle and apply the hand and foot brakes at the same time.
When driving on sandy, wet or slippery ground use mainly the rear
wheel brake. Always brake with feeling, blocking wheels can cause
you to skid or fall. Also change down to lower gears depending on
your speed.
When driving down hill, use the braking effect of the engine.
Change down one or two gears but do not overspeed the engine. In
this way, you will not need to brake so much and the brakes will not
overheat.
