Parking, Reversing & Roadside StopsStandalone practice
You park facing uphill at the right edge of a two-way road with no curb. How should you set the front wheels?
Car A faces uphill on a rural road with no curb. It is parked on the right shoulder, outside the travelled roadway. The front wheels have not yet been set.
Correct answer: Toward the road edge, to the right.
Why
Turn the front wheels toward the road edge, to the right in this scenario. Set the parking brake and select Park, or a suitable low gear in a manual vehicle. Without a curb, the wheel direction should guide a possible rollback away from the traveled lane.
