  • Operate vehicles only from the driver’s seat.
  • Always drive slowly in congested areas, on wet or loose terrain, and when backing up.
  • Drive slowly when turning and avoid sudden stops.
  • Always drive straight up and down slopes.
  • Do not coast, use brake when going down a slope.
  • Always fully engage parking brake and remove the key BEFORE leaving the vehicle. In an electric vehicle, set the direction selector to “neutral.” In a gasoline-powered vehicle, set the selector to “forward.”
