When parking downhill, which direction should you turn your wheels?

Toward the curb

When parking downhill, the correct practice is to turn your wheels toward the curb. This is a safety measure designed to prevent the vehicle from rolling into the street if the parking brake fails. By positioning the wheels toward the curb, if the vehicle were to start rolling, it would naturally come to rest against the curb rather than rolling into traffic or down the slope.

Turning the wheels in this manner effectively uses the curb as a barrier, enhancing the stability of the parked vehicle and reducing the likelihood of an accident. Properly executing this maneuver is essential for ensuring the safety of both the driver and other road users.
