    Facing uphill with a curb, turn your wheels away from the curb and set the parking brake. If the car rolls back, the rear of the front tire catches against the curb.

    Show answer

    B. Toward the curb

    Except for uphill parking with a curb, you turn the wheels toward the curb or edge of the road. Facing downhill, the curb then stops the car if it rolls. Also turn off the engine, take the keys and lock the car.
