You are parking next to the curb and facing uphill. Which way should you point your front wheels?

Correct answer

  • Away from the curb
  • Toward the curb
  • In any direction

Explanation

When you park facing uphill, you should point your wheels away from the curb and then roll back slowly so that the rear part of the right front wheel rests against the curb. If your brakes fail, the curb will block your car from rolling. Make sure you still set your parking brake and leave your car in the correct gear.
