Here are other important points you should know when parking on a hill:
- You have to turn the wheels towards the roadside and you must steer the wheels away from the side if you are parking on an incline. If you park under a hill, then you have to turn the wheel towards the roadside.
- You have to press the foot brake, then put the car in a neutral position and then turn the steering wheel one full turn in the right direction, this will prevent the car from rolling into traffic when the brakes fail.
- If you can't find the sidewalk, then you have to turn your front wheel to the side of the road and this can be done when the car is facing up or down. This method will make the car move or roll onto the grass or ground next to the road and will prevent the car from driving into traffic lanes.
- Do not turn the wheel when the car is stopped, as it will put pressure on the tires and the power steering system.
When rolling the car towards the roadside, you must do it in a concentrated mode. Lift the foot that is pressing the brake and let the car slide slowly down the hill and this process continues until you feel that the front tire has turned to the sidewalk
