Parking, Reversing & Roadside StopsStandalone practice
You park facing downhill on a street with a curb. You have set the parking brake and shifted into park. Which way should you turn the front wheels?
A is parked facing downhill beside a curb. A side profile identifies the slope direction.
Correct answer: Sharply toward the curb
Why
On any hill, turn the front wheels so that a car that starts to roll would move off the road, away from traffic. Facing downhill next to a curb, that means turning toward the curb, which then acts as a block. Set the parking brake every time as well, and leave an automatic in park or a manual in gear.
