DentroTest · Accepted Answer

According to General Traffic Regulations, when parking on steep slopes, all vehicles must be immobilized using the parking brake. However, for vehicles over 3,500 kg, buses, and vehicle combinations, an additional measure is mandatory: placing proper wheel chocks against the wheels. If chocks are not available, using stones or other objects is strictly forbidden (due to safety hazards); instead, the steering wheels must be turned to rest against the curb (towards the center of the road if facing uphill, or towards the curb if facing downhill). Hazard lights alone do not immobilize the vehicle.
