I agree with the motorcycle part but I don't understand the truck part. I was a heavy hauler for two years and I used my Jake brake pretty much all the time. Sometimes at the top of a hill that I had never been down before I would come to almost a stop in order to get into a low gear so as to have adequate engine braking, and still have to use my wheel brakes hard. The toughest downhill situation that I ever encountered was while working under the direction of state and FEMA officials that were insisting on full legal loads and minimal delays. Once you start down a big hill you are committed. You can't get into a lower gear and you can't stop and get a cool set of brakes and you don't get a second chance unless there is a run-away truck ramp there. So is there a run-away truck ramp on that hill by your house? or are you just wishing for run-away trucks to go hurtling through your town?
