Here&#8217;s why turning your steering wheel to the left is the correct action:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Purpose of Steering Wheel Positioning<\/strong>: When parking uphill, you should turn your steering wheel away from the curb (to the left) so that if your car begins to roll, the front of the car will turn towards the curb and stop, preventing it from rolling into traffic. The left turn ensures that if the car moves, it will roll directly into the curb and not into the street, potentially causing an accident.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Why Not to Turn Right<\/strong>: Turning the steering wheel to the right would cause the front of the car to turn toward the street. If the car starts rolling, it could roll into oncoming traffic, which is dangerous.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Tire Positioning<\/strong>: While the tire should not rest on the curb, it is crucial to park close enough to the curb (without hitting it) to ensure that the vehicle is stable and not in the way of other traffic. The six-inch rule (staying within 6 inches of the curb) ensures your car is properly positioned without obstructing lanes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Additional Considerations<\/strong>: Always set your parking brake to further ensure your car stays stationary. It&#8217;s also important to check local parking laws and guidelines as they may vary, especially regarding tire positioning and distance from the curb.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>In summary, when parking uphill next to a curb on a two-way street, turning your steering wheel to the left ensures that your vehicle is safely parked and reduces the risk of it rolling into traffic.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Parking uphill next to a curb on a two-way street requires:AnswersYour steering wheel to be turned to the left.Your steering wheel to be turned to the right.Your right rear tire to be resting on the curb.That you leave your car six inches from the curb.
