When parking facing downhill on a street with a curb, in which direction should you turn your steering wheel?
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: To the right (towards the curb).
Why
When parking downhill with or without a curb, always turn your wheels to the right (towards the curb/edge). If the brakes fail, the vehicle will roll off the road rather than into traffic.
