How should you position your wheels when parking downhill?

Turned away from the curb
Straight
Turned toward the curb
Parallel to the street

The correct answer is: Turned toward the curb

When parking downhill, it is important to position your wheels towards the curb. This is the correct answer because turning your wheels towards the curb will prevent your vehicle from rolling into the street if the brakes fail. By positioning the wheels towards the curb, the curb will act as a barrier and stop the vehicle from rolling downhill. Option A, turning away from the curb, is incorrect as it would allow the vehicle to roll freely downhill if the brakes fail. Option B, keeping the wheels straight, is not recommended as there would be nothing to prevent the vehicle from rolling downhill. Option D, having the wheels parallel to the street, also does not provide any safeguard against the vehicle rolling downhill. Therefore, the best and safest option is to position the wheels towards the curb when parking downhill.
