When parking downhill without a curb, which way should the tires be turned?

When parking downhill without a curb, the proper way to position your tires is to turn them towards the right, or toward the edge of the road. This ensures that if the vehicle were to roll, it would roll off the road and not into traffic. This practice is a safety measure designed to prevent accidents caused by a vehicle rolling away.

In scenarios where there is a curb present, tires would typically be turned in the opposite direction to make use of the curb as a barrier to prevent rolling. Since there is no curb in this situation, the responsibility shifts to protecting the vehicle and other road users. Thus, turning the tires to the right in this context is critical for safety.
