Question
when parking your vehicle on any hill:
one of your rear wheels should touch the curb
use your parking brake and leave the vehicle in park
your front wheels should be parallel to the road if there is no curb
always turn your wheels towards the curb
Brief Explanations
To determine the correct answer, we analyze each option:
- "One of your rear wheels should touch the curb": Incorrect. When parking on a hill, the wheels (front or rear depending on the situation) should be turned appropriately, not just one rear wheel touching the curb.
- "Use your parking brake and leave the vehicle in park": This is a correct and essential step when parking on a hill. The parking brake helps prevent the vehicle from rolling, and leaving it in park (for automatic vehicles) or in gear (for manual) adds an extra layer of safety.
- "Your front wheels should be parallel to the road if there is no curb": Incorrect. If there's no curb, the wheels should be turned towards the side of the road (into the direction of the slope) to prevent the vehicle from rolling into traffic.
- "Always turn your wheels towards the curb": Incorrect. If parking uphill without a curb, the wheels should be turned away from the curb (towards the road) to prevent the vehicle from rolling into traffic. If parking downhill with a curb, the wheels should be turned towards the curb. So it's not always towards the curb.
