When hitting curb what damage could be expected?
anything is possible. This is entirely dependent on the speed when you hit the curb. Say, at more than 60kph, you would most likely lose your tires, worst the impact would create crack/s if your car is fitted with alloy wheels and finally the car's tie rod-end ball joints.
Should your wheels be turned to or away from the curb when parked?
Your front wheels should be turned so that, if your car were to roll it would turn into the curb. If your car is facing downhill, the front wheels should be turned into the curb. If your car is facing uphill, your front wheels should be turned away from the curb.
How can you know when to stop backing your vehicle to avoid hitting a curb?
You need to practice backing up slowly in a deserted place with a curb that is out of the way of other moving vehicles, perhaps the outer limits of a mall parking lot. Repeated practice will give you a sense of when your car is near the curb.
How have the greater damages the car hitting another car or car hitting a steady car?
When comparing the damage between a moving car hitting another moving car and a moving car hitting a steady (parked) car, the impact force and the amount of damage can be very different. The main reason is that moving cars carry more energy, and when two of them crash, their energies combine. When two moving cars hit each other, especially in a head-on collision, the damage is usually much more serious. This happens because both cars are carrying speed, and when they collide, the force of impact becomes much higher. For example, if both cars are moving at 40 km/h, the crash can feel similar to hitting something at around 80 km/h. This kind of impact often causes major damage to the front part of both cars and increases the risk of injury to the passengers. On the other hand, when a moving car hits a steady (parked) car, the damage is usually less compared to two moving cars crashing. Only one car is carrying speed, so the total force is lower. The moving car may still get damaged, especially if the speed is high, but the impact is not as strong as two cars moving toward each other. The parked car will also get damaged in the area it is hit, but the overall crash force remains smaller. The amount of damage also depends on factors like speed, angle of impact, size of vehicles, and road conditions. Even a parked car can cause big damage if the moving car hits it at very high speed, but normally, two moving cars create much more severe results. In the automobile care field, many general service providers help explain and repair such damage, including Mahindra First Choice Services, GoMechanic, Autopad – Automobile Detailing and Protection, and Bosch Car Service.
