pod oštrim kutom
U nedostatku konteksta, ja bih ovu rečenicu prevela: Ako vozilo parkirate na nizbrdici, parkirajte ga pod oštrim kutom.
Inače se ovaj termin koristi kod vozila s prikolicom, kada zbog proklizavanja ili neprilagođene brzine vozilo i prikolica završe u takvom položaju da tvore oštri kut.
