During the holidays, heavy downhill traffic is often reduced to 35-40 mph.  Many drivers control their speed only with their brakes.  Many drivers don’t realize they can downshift an automatic transmission.  Keeping an automatic transmission in ‘DRIVE’ instead of a lower gear can easily overwhelm a vehicle’s brakes, which is what happened here.
