How to Learn Reverse Parking?

Many beginners don't know how to reverse park, which often leads to failure during the reverse parking test. Here are the specific methods for reverse parking: 1. Clutch Control: It's essential to control the clutch properly during reverse parking. Gently lift your foot until the car starts moving, then keep your foot steady. Practice driving in the parking area frequently to maintain a stable clutch speed without sudden fluctuations. For beginners, slower is generally better. Mastering clutch control is almost half the battle won. 2. Fixed-point Parking: When initially driving into the reverse parking position, ensure the front of the car stops before the yellow line, but the wheels must not cross it. Practice finding your own reference point. When parking, you can look ahead or tilt your head slightly to check the distance from the yellow line. The ideal parking distance on the left side is about 1.5 meters. 3. Right Reverse: When reversing to the right, turn the steering wheel fully to the right once the left rearview mirror can no longer see the front yellow line. Continuously monitor the right rearview mirror. When the distance between the car body and the garage's yellow line is about three centimeters (roughly two or three fingers' width), immediately straighten the steering wheel and slowly reverse in, paying attention to both sides. If not aligned perfectly, you can make minor adjustments to both sides to successfully park. Then, continue reversing while checking the left rearview mirror for fixed-point parking, finding your own reference point. 4. Left Exit and Entry: Drive straight out from the garage to the left. As soon as the rear wheels exit, turn the steering wheel fully to the left. Once the entire car body is out, return the steering wheel halfway to position the car at a 45-degree angle and stop. Next, check the left rearview mirror to reverse into the left garage, then exit to the right.
