Explanation
When parking on hills, drivers should always turn their front wheels so that if the vehicle starts to move, it won’t roll toward traffic. When parking uphill, turn your front wheels away from the curb. If there is no curb, turn your front wheels to the right. Always set the parking brake. If you have an automatic transmission, put the gear shift in Park. If you have a manual transmission, shift to Reverse when parking downhill or to First when parking uphill.
