Then you have to brake on the way down. You can play the game and flick the cruise control on and off. If you drive a manual transmission you can slow down by keeping the same gas pedal position going up the hill. Then you downshift at the crest of the hill, keeping within the speed limit without using your brakes going down the hill.
