Honda CR-V: Driving on Slopes
Honda CR-V (2006–2011) Owner's Manual / Driving / Off-Highway Driving Guidelines / Driving on Slopes
If you can’t clearly see all conditions or obstacles on a slope, walk the slope before you drive on it. If you have any doubt whether or not you can safely drive on the slope, don’t do it. Find another route.
If you are driving up a hill and find that you cannot continue, do not try to turn around. Your vehicle could roll over. Slowly back down the hill, following the same route you took up the hill.
