if I set my cars cruise control at 40mph, why does it accelerate going down hill?
I set my cars cruise control at 40mph….when going down hill…it speeds up…why?
This might be a lil more simpler
Cruise at 40
going down hill will make your car speed up by 4 – 10 mph (depending on how steep)
The cruise control to help maintain and lower the speed will downshift the transmission into a gear lower to create more resistance which will pull the car back (if you have driven a manual transmission you’ll understand what i mean)
you think your car is goin faster because the engine is reving higher its not
when the transmission downshifts the revs build up and creates more resistance. thus slowing you down slightly till the road levels out and will upshift to the proper gear for proper performance.
1st time happened to me i thought i broke my car 
lol

It does so by both engaging their widescreen ethos–”To Zion,” with its martial drums and gospel choir, is as epic a production as has been heard in 1998′s pop music–and speaking the plain truth. Miseducation focuses equally on Lauryn Hill’s life (especially the bir… |
