How should you park on a hill?

  1. Leave the car in neutral

  2. Steer away from the kerb

  3. Steer towards the kerb and apply the handbrake fully

  4. Park parallel to the kerb

The correct answer is: Steer towards the kerb and apply the handbrake fully

Parking on a hill can be tricky, as you want to make sure your car is secure and won't roll away. Option A, leaving the car in neutral, is not recommended because if your handbrake fails, your car will roll down the hill. Option B, steering away from the kerb, is also not recommended because your car may roll towards the kerb, potentially causing damage or injury. Option D, parking parallel to the kerb, is also not recommended as your car may roll inwards and potentially cause damage or injury. Option C, steering towards the kerb and fully applying the handbrake, is the safest and recommended way to park on a hill. This will prevent your car from rolling down the hill if your handbrake fails, and also keep it securely in place.
