A wheel chocking assembly for a vehicle such as a truck where the wheel chocks are supported in respective cradles mounted for rotation on the truck's frame or chassis, and where the cradles are adapted to be moved between a first upwardly-facing inoperative position where each cradle supports its corresponding chock in an inoperative mode, and an operative positon where each cradle is rotated about 180° sufficient to lower its corresponding chock by a tether into chocking position under the influence of gravity. A control system is provided where transition from the aforementioned inoperative position to the operative position is remotely controlled by operation of the vehicle's parking brake.
