4. Use steady brake pressure to control the speed, and allow the vehicle to slowly roll straight downhill.
If your vehicle begins to roll downhill:

Do not press the accelerator.
2. Apply the brakes gradually until the vehicle fully stops.
3. Verify that the area behind you is clear.
4. Put the transmission in R (reverse).
