How Can Beginners Safely Reverse a Car?
1 Answers
Before reversing, first observe the terrain. When parking, pay attention to whether there are obstacles around the empty space as you approach it. When parking in reverse, an entry angle of around 40 degrees is ideal. Taking reversing to the right rear as an example, the timing of turning the steering wheel to the left after entering is crucial. Pay attention to the front of the car; if you feel the front can pass, you can turn the wheel. Here are some important points to note when reversing: 1. Reversing Method: Before reversing, first check the situation behind the car, estimate the reversing path, and determine whether the front of the car might hit any obstacles. Try to avoid pressing the accelerator when reversing, and control the speed to avoid going too fast. Depending on the direction the rear of the car needs to move, use your left hand to turn the steering wheel. If the rear needs to move to the right rear, turn the steering wheel to the right. Conversely, turn it to the left. 2. Precautions: During the reversing process, do not focus solely on the rear. While ensuring the rear is safe, periodically check the left and right rearview mirrors to monitor the distance between obstacles and the car body, and adjust the steering wheel accordingly to correct the car's position while reversing. If you feel the front of the car might hit an obstacle during reversing, also check the front of the car at the appropriate time.
