Your very own thrill ride right here in Salvador. Countless roads like this one (found in Rio Vermelho) angle down steep declines, seemingly strait into the ocean, yet at the last minute you will see there is a road to save you from certain wetness. The degree incline that some of these roads have make me worry about the longetivity of the clutch in the cars traveling up and down them, and the driver's ability to master that break/clutch bounce with use of the parking break to keep yourself from barreling backwards into the motorist behind you. If you drive here, you must, absolutely MUST be able to do this, and stand the buring smell your engine will make in the process. This is probably one of the main reasons I don't drive here. That, and the amount of these types of roads that I have seen that DO actually end with no warning, either sending the unsuspecting driver into a building, a large walled off trash heap, and in one case, a road that becomes a stairway that empties on to the sidewalk below.
