How to Adjust Steering When Right Reverse Parking is Less Than 30 cm
2 Answers
When right reverse parking is less than 30 cm, promptly shorten the steering wheel turn and wait until the corner of the parking space is no longer visible, then turn the steering wheel fully to the right. Related introductions about reversing are as follows: 1. Ask someone to help guide when reversing: During reversing, the right rear of the car is a blind spot, the area farthest from the driver, and sometimes difficult to observe. If someone is present, ask for their assistance in guiding. 2. Observe the terrain before reversing: Pay attention to whether the front bumper of your vehicle might collide with vehicles on either side, and also check for any obstacles nearby. If there are obstacles on both sides, try to keep the car body close to the left when reversing left, and close to the right when reversing right. 3. Be realistic about turning in the garage: When navigating right-angle turns and sharp bends in an underground garage, always be realistic about your capabilities. If unsure whether there is enough space to turn, get out and observe.
When I first started practicing reverse parking, I got really nervous when the space on the right was less than 30 cm. I immediately turned the steering wheel slightly to the left to make the rear of the car move left and increase the distance, then checked the rearview mirror to ensure no obstacles were hit. Then, I reversed slowly a bit more. If it was still tight, I stopped, moved forward slightly, and adjusted before trying again. The key is to maintain a steady speed—not too fast—by gently pressing the brake pedal and frequently checking both side mirrors to stay aware. Practicing in an empty lot helps build familiarity and gradually boosts confidence, reducing shaky hands. Remember to make small steering adjustments; larger ones can cause excessive deviation and lead to trouble. Smooth and steady operation is crucial.
