Minecarts do not roll down hill unless given momentum by powered rail or player. Place a mine cart on sloped track and the cart stays in place unless pushed. A cart traveling uphill without sufficient power will come to a stop and not roll back down.

I can partially varify this issue, but only in regards to launching a minecart from a sloped track. The rail will get power, but the cart will stay stalled on the track.
