Surely that is the wrong?

An heavily laden lorry versus a lightly loaded one, will make for a
quicker overtake on an uphill, because the heavily laden one will slow
down.

I thought the idea was to stop lorries over taking each other slowing the rest of the traffic down.

On the downhill parts, the advantage is gone and all will be able
to do a similar speed.
