When parking uphill with no curb, your front wheels should be:

Pointed straight ahead
Pointed away from the curb
Pointed towards the curb
Pointed to the side

The correct answer is: Pointed towards the curb

When parking uphill with no curb, your front wheels should be pointed towards the curb for safety reasons. This allows the car to roll towards the curb if the parking brake fails. Pointing the wheels straight ahead (A) or to the side (D) does not provide the same level of safety. Pointing the wheels away from the curb (B) would cause the car to roll towards traffic, which could be dangerous. Therefore, option C is the best choice in this scenario.
