Stand at the back of your car and imagine the slope. If you’re on a hill and you let go, which way will the car roll? Point the wheels so they roll into something solid. That’s the whole secret.

For uphill: wheels away from curb. For downhill: wheels toward curb. No curb? Wheels toward the roadside. Write it on a sticky note if you have to. I have one on my sun visor that says “CURB, YOU FOOL.”

Why you should care (besides avoiding chaos)

It’s not just about avoiding a fender bender. It’s about peace of mind. When you know your car is parked right, you can walk away without looking back five times. You can sip your coffee without imagining your car rolling into a fire hydrant.

I once parked on a hill in San Francisco and forgot to turn the wheels. I came back to find my car had moved two feet and was politely touching a garbage truck. The truck driver just laughed and said, “Happens every day, honey.”

So next time you park on a slope, take an extra second. Turn those wheels like you mean it. Your car will stay put, your insurance will stay low, and you’ll feel like a parking wizard. And honestly? That’s a pretty good feeling for a Tuesday morning.
