When parking on a hill you should remember the following points:
- Stop the vehicle as close to the kerb as possible
- Apply the handbrake firmly
- When facing uphill: select a forward gear and turn the wheels away from the kerb.
- When facing downhill: select reverse gear and turn the wheels towards the kerb.
- Leave adequate gaps, being on the slope may require more room to manoeuvre in or out.
- Be considerate of others.
- Automatic vehicles should select park (P)
Rule 252: Turn your wheels away from the kerb when parking facing uphill. Turn them towards the kerb when parking facing downhill
