Correct answer
Parking brake, appropriate gear and proper chocks or prescribed kerb support.
Apply the parking brake, engage first gear uphill or reverse downhill, and use proper wheel chocks or the prescribed support of a steered wheel against a kerb. With kerb support, turn the wheels towards the carriageway centre uphill and away downhill. Chocks alone, or just the brake and gear, are insufficient in this case. Do not use stones or improvised objects as chocks; remove chocks from the road when moving off.
