Final answer:

To safely enter a parked car at the curb, approach it from the front while facing oncoming traffic to increase visibility and check for any potential dangers.

Step-by-step explanation:

When parked at the curb, it is always safest to approach your car from the front, while facing oncoming traffic. This allows you to observe any potential dangers such as oncoming cars and ensures you are visible to the drivers.

This is especially important in areas with high traffic. Always check for bicycles and other vehicles that may not be immediately visible before stepping out onto the street to enter your car.
