How to Check the Wheels During Parallel Parking?

[Elaine]

Methods for checking the wheels during parallel parking: 1. Left side: Simply look forward along the left edge of the steering wheel. If the line you follow aligns with the yellow or white line, it indicates that the wheel is on the marking. 2. Right side: First, look at the right edge of the steering wheel, then extend 15 centimeters to the right from the right edge of the steering wheel and look forward. The rest is the same as the left side. Below are additional tips: 1. Distance: The most critical aspect of parallel parking is the distance between the car body and the edge of the parking space, as this distance can be observed through the right rearview mirror to determine the parking position and the timing for reversing. 2. Too wide: If the distance is too wide, it will cause the car to swing too much when reversing. Even if the rear wheels can enter the space, the remaining distance makes it difficult to straighten the car. 3. Too narrow: If the distance is too narrow, when reversing into the space, the front right corner of the car will be too close to the car in front, making it easy to scrape when straightening the wheels, or the rear of the car becomes a hazard if avoiding the front right corner. Therefore, this distance should not be too wide or too narrow; 30cm is the most suitable distance.
