Question 276
When parking a vehicle with a trailer on an uphill slope, what must you do if you do not have wheel chocks?
- Rest one of the front wheels against the curb, turned toward the center of the roadway.
- It is enough to leave reverse or first gear engaged.
- Use natural objects such as stones, pieces of wood, etc., as chocks.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: Rest one of the front wheels against the curb, turned toward the center of the roadway.
Without suitable wheel chocks, you must rest a steering wheel against the curb, turned toward the center of the roadway because the slope is uphill. Stones or pieces of wood may not replace wheel chocks.
