Explanation
To keep your vehicle from rolling into traffic, when you park on a downhill grade you should turn your front wheels toward the curb. If you are facing uphill, turn your wheels to the left, and let your car roll back until the right front wheel rests against the curb and stops. If there is no curb, turn the wheels toward the edge of the road.
