Page 143 Never use your vehicle to compete with other vehicles. Brake using both the front and rear brakes. Using only one brake in the event of hard braking could cause the vehicle to skid or cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle. When driving downhill, take advantage of the engine's braking action by selecting the same gear or a lower gear than those normally used uphill.
Page 144 Do not tamper with the exhaust or emissions control system of your vehicle as this is not only a form of environmental protection, but could incur criminal penalties. 03_39 03_40 CLOTHING Before riding the vehicle, make sure your clothing is in suitable condition.
