What is the proper technique when parking uphill with a curb?

Turn your wheels to the left
Start in Reverse and back into the curb
Turn your wheels to the right
Put your vehicle in Park

The correct answer is: Turn your wheels to the right

When parking uphill with a curb, turning your wheels to the right is the proper technique. This is because the curb will act as a block and prevent your vehicle from rolling backward. Turning your wheels to the left or starting in reverse and backing into the curb could potentially cause your vehicle to roll forward and hit the curb. Putting your vehicle in park may also not be enough to prevent it from rolling downhill. It is important to always follow proper techniques when parking to ensure the safety of your vehicle and those around you.
