Question:
To control your speed on steep downgrades, you should
A
use a lower gear.
explanation
The continuous application of brakes to control speed on downgrades will cause the brakes to fade (lose their effectiveness). Instead, to control your speed on downgrades, release the accelerator (gas) pedal and shift into a lower gear (even with an automatic transmission). With the throttle closed, a partial vacuum is created in the engine's intake and cylinders that generates a braking effect to slow down the vehicle. This is known as engine braking. The lower the gear, the greater the engine braking effect. Apply the brakes only when engine braking is insufficient or you want to stop.

The app was working fine until all of a sudden everything is unavailable with the notification “function unavailable at this time.” I knew it worked previously due to my friend completing all the sections. I have the test coming up in a bit and i need to study.

Its really helps and preps any student well to pass. But as a visual person with no experience of driving , I had a hard time picturing in my head some of the questions they had. It would be nice to have more pictures alongside the scenarios to better understand the question.
