I have my Theory test tomorrow, I've been passing all the mock ones easily, I have got the real hang of it and flying through it, But some questions have got me stumped...

"When driving down a steep hill what should you do in order to control your speed?"

I know you'd select a gear such as Two or Three, But what are they classed as?
Because you go DOWN gears to get to them, but there Classed as HIGHER Gears...

I just don't know how to get my head around it. Any help would be great.
 
they aren't higher gears.... The answer to that question is downshift to engine break.
