When travelling in wet or slippery
conditions, use care when accelerating
and braking. After driving through deep
water (over 5 cm’s deep) gently apply the
brakes whilst moving to dry them.
When travelling downhill, take extra care
not to use the brakes too much. Excessive
use can cause the fluid to boil and
become ineffective. If possible use the
engine brake to keep the speed at a steady
pace.

creep forward even when the accelerator is not pressed.

vehicle moving.
