Warning, Construction & Information SignsStandalone practice
You are driving a car on a rural road and pass this sign. What should you do?
Correct answer: Check your speed and be ready to slow down, since a steep downgrade is ahead
Why
On a steep downgrade, a car picks up speed quickly and needs more room to stop. New York law requires a speed that is reasonable for the conditions and a reduced speed when you approach a hill crest. Do not pass near the top of a hill on a two-way road, where you cannot see oncoming traffic.
