One example: if you drive thorugh a hilly/mountainous area, roads that have severe slopes (4% or greater) are marked so that you will be more aware of the difficulty of making it up the hills and the difficulty of keeping control of your vehicle going down the hills.
Going down the hills, they may have special areas for trucks that become out of control and need to have an area which will get them to stop.
Another example: slopes are related to the pitches of roofs.
Both of these, and other examples, can be explored on the internet.
