I am someone who lives in a very flat area, not a single hill. Suppose I was taking a road trip and had to go up and down some mountains, what tips should I consider to be safe? How do I avoid ruining my clutch or my breaks?

Mountains are always eroding, you'll find a road that was clear before might have some gravel/sand show up on it the next morning.
