At what position should you stop the car in front before starting to reverse into the parking space?

If there is enough space in front of the garage, you can park the car straight and reverse directly into the garage. If there is not enough space, park the car at a 45-degree angle to the garage, then turn the steering wheel and reverse while keeping the car close to one side of the garage door by checking the rearview mirror. If you can't get in at once, when the car is halfway in, move forward a bit to straighten the car and reverse again. Below are specific tips for reversing into a parking space: 1. Identify the starting point: Take right-side reversing as an example. The car should be 1.2-1.8 meters away from the left line at the starting position, with the front wheels straight and the car body parallel to the left line. When reversing, use the bottom edge of the left rearview mirror as a reference. When the two coincide, turn the steering wheel fully to the right and continue reversing. 2. Control the corner point: Watch the right rearview mirror. When you spot the corner point of the garage, pay attention to the changing distance between the corner point and the car body until the car body is parallel to the garage line, then turn the steering wheel back one and a half turns in one go. 3. Align the stopping point: The stopping point is where you stop after entering the garage. The reference method is the same as identifying the starting point. When you see the bottom edge of the left mirror coincide with the shoulder line of the garage, stop the car.
