Driving Uphill
When driving uphill your car will need more power to maintain its speed so you may need to change down a gear. The steeper the hill the lower the gear.
Parking On a Hill
Make sure your handbrake is firmly engaged. If facing downhill turn the front wheels into the kerb and put the car into reverse gear. If facing uphill turn the wheels away from the kerb and engage first gear.
