1

When parking uphill next to a curb, how should you position your front wheels?

Illustration for question 1
  • A.Toward the curb
  • B.Straight
  • C.Away from the curb✓
  • D.In any direction

Why: When parking facing uphill with a curb, you must turn your front wheels away from the curb. This ensures that if your vehicle rolls backward, the rear of the front tire will catch against the curb to stop the car.

2

Illustration for question 2
  • A.10 feet from a fire hydrant
  • B.On a bridge
  • C.On the sidewalk
  • D.Within 12 inches of the curb✓

Why: When parallel parking, your vehicle's wheels must be parallel to and within 12 inches of the curb. Parking is prohibited on bridges, sidewalks, and typically within 15 feet of a fire hydrant.
