To decelerate:
When slowing down or stopping, release the
throttle and apply the brakes smoothly and
evenly. As you slow down, shift to a lower gear.
Be sure that the engine has sufficiently slowed
before engaging a lower gear. Improper use of
the brakes or shifting can cause the tires to lose
traction, reducing control and increasing the
possibility of an accident.
