Top view of a car on a downhill street next to a curb. The front wheels turn right and touch the curb.

You park on the right side of the road and face downhill. Where do you point the front wheels?

  1. To the right in all cases
  2. To the left in all cases
  3. Straight ahead if there is a curb
  4. To the left if there is no curb
Show answer

Correct answer: To the right in all cases

When you face downhill, always turn the front wheels to the right. A vehicle that moves then goes off the road, not into traffic.
