Final answer:

When parking uphill on a road with a curb, turn your front wheels away from the curb.

Step-by-step explanation:

When parking your car facing uphill on a road with a curb, you should turn your front wheels away from the curb. This means you should turn your front wheels to the left, towards the center of the road. Turning the wheels in this direction will prevent your car from rolling downhill if the parking brake fails, as the curb will stop the car from rolling straight into the road.
