When you park uphill on a street with a curb:

When parking on an incline where there is a curb, you should turn your wheels sharply to the left, away from the curb. This way, if your brakes fail, your vehicle will not roll into traffic.

• Keep the front wheel straight and set the parking brake.
• Turn the front wheels away from the curb.
• Turn the front wheels toward the curb.
• Turn the back wheels into the curb.
