Roads & carriageways

On a mountain road a climbing and a descending car meet each other on a narrow stretch. According to the book, who must be given priority?

Descending traffic gets priority, because braking while descending is harder
Climbing traffic gets priority from descending traffic

Explanation

Wrong — trap: priority direction reversed based on an intuition about braking distance. Climbing traffic must be given priority by descending traffic (Book p.70).
