The correct answer: The front wheels should be turned towards the centre of the road, forward gear should be engaged and safety chocks should be placed behind the rear wheels.
A commercial vehicle over 5,000 kg parked uphill by a kerb should have its front wheels turned towards the centre of the road, forward gear engaged, and safety chocks placed behind the rear wheels. This helps stop it from rolling backwards.
