How is to brake safely while travelling downhill?

To brake safely while traveling downhill, use a combination of engine braking and gradual application of the brakes to prevent overheating. Downshift to lower gears to help control speed and reduce reliance on the brakes. Apply the brakes intermittently, rather than continuously, to maintain control without causing brake fade. Always stay aware of your surroundings and adjust your speed as necessary based on the road conditions.
