Explanation

Explanation text category C / driving test drpciv:
The vehicle that is descending a slope must give priority to those who are climbing, if on the lane of those who are climbing there is a fixed obstacle. Therefore when you are driving downhill (that is, you are descending) and from the opposite direction another truck is driving (climbing) which intends to overtake an obstacle, you are the one who must give priority.
