How to Adjust the Steering When Left Reverse Parking is Less Than 30 cm?

Drive the car to the starting position line and ensure the steering wheel is straight. Shift into "reverse gear," observe the starting dashed line through the angle between the left rearview mirror and the car body, and slowly release the clutch. Hold the steering wheel turned fully to the right and shift your gaze to the right rearview mirror.
I've encountered this situation when parking where the left side is too close, requiring slight steering adjustments. The specific operation is: don't panic, gently turn the steering wheel slightly to the right, say about half a turn, not too much, and slowly reverse while observing the changes in the rearview mirror. This allows the rear of the car to move slightly to the right, creating more space on the left. The key is to make small adjustments, not large corrections, otherwise it's easy to scrape the right side or hit the wall. I remember trying this several times in narrow parking spaces in the community and found that when the left reverse parking is less than 30 centimeters, it's especially important to keep the speed slow and adjust the car's angle to be level. Rushing it often makes things worse. Also, always observe the surroundings to ensure there are no pedestrians behind. Every time I handle it calmly like this, my parking accuracy improves. With more practice, it becomes an instinctive reaction.
