How to Control Speed When Reversing into a Parking Space?

[Judith]

When reversing into a parking space, shift into reverse gear, gradually release the clutch, and use the brake to slowly maneuver the car into the space to control the speed and ensure a smooth entry. Below is some relevant information about reversing into a parking space: 1. Overview: Reversing into a parking space has been a mandatory test item for obtaining a small car driver's license since 2013. It assesses the driver's ability to operate the vehicle in a confined space. Reversing into a parking space is one of the key evaluation points in the driver's test, requiring the driver to correctly reverse the vehicle into the parking space from both sides while in motion. There is a time limit for this maneuver during the test. 2. Methods: There are three most common types of reversing into a parking space. The first is the "non"-shaped reverse parking, commonly found in large shopping malls. The second is the roadside "one"-shaped reverse parking, also known as parallel parking. The third is the less common diagonal reverse parking. About 70% of driving students find parallel parking more challenging.
