When parking uphill on a two-way street with no curb, where should your front wheels be turned?

When parking uphill on a two-way street with no curb, the correct action is to turn your front wheels away from the street, which means turning them to the right. This is important because if your vehicle were to roll down the hill, having the wheels turned in this direction would help prevent it from rolling into the street and potentially causing a collision.

The reason for turning the wheels away from the street (to the right) is to utilize the natural incline of the road. By positioning the wheels this way, the vehicle would roll into the roadside instead of into oncoming traffic, which enhances safety for both the vehicle and other road users. This technique helps in minimizing the impact of unintended movement of the vehicle on a slope.

Turning towards the street, keeping the wheels straight, or turning at a 45-degree angle would not provide the same level of safety if the vehicle were to move, as they would either lead to the car entering the street unexpectedly or not taking full advantage of the incline to prevent rolling.
