Parking, Reversing & Roadside StopsStandalone practice
You park facing downhill beside a curb on the right side of the road. Where should the front wheels point?
Car A faces downhill with a curb on its right. The small road-profile diagram shows the slope. The car is shown before its front wheels are set for parking.
Correct answer: Toward the right curb.
Why
For downhill parking with a curb on the right, turn the front wheels toward the curb. Set the parking brake and secure the transmission appropriately. The wheel position helps direct the vehicle toward the curb if it starts to roll; do not rely only on the transmission.
