Explanation
When parking on a hill, drivers should turn their wheels so that if their vehicle starts to move, it will roll away from traffic or into the curb. When parking downhill, turn your front wheels into the curb or toward the side of the road. When parking uphill, turn your front wheels away from the curb. If there is no curb, whether you are parking uphill or downhill, turn the front wheels so the vehicle will roll away from the center of the road if the brakes fail. Always remember to set the parking brake and turn off your vehicle.
