When parking on a level street, which way should you turn your wheels?

Into the curb
Away from the curb
Towards the left
Towards the right

The correct answer is: Away from the curb

When parking on a level street, it is important to turn your wheels away from the curb. This allows for easier maneuvering and prevents your vehicle from rolling into traffic if the brakes were to fail. Turning your wheels into the curb (choice A) would make it difficult to pull out safely. Turning your wheels towards the left (choice C) or towards the right (choice D) may lead to potential collisions with other parked vehicles or create an obstruction in the road. Therefore, turning your wheels away from the curb is the safest and most logical option.
