Hill / Downgrade Traffic Sign

Hill / Downgrade

This traffic sign warns you about a hill or a downgrade up ahead on the road. Slow down and be ready to shift to lower gear to control speed and save brakes.

Remember that making U-turns and passing other vehicles on hills is forbidden, these maneuvers become dangerous due to low visibility.

If you intend to park the vehicle in the area covered by this warning sign, make sure to follow the rules of parking on hills. Always set the parking brake, leave the vehicle in appropriate gear and turn the wheels so the vehicle rolls away from traffic should the brakes fail.
