How to Quickly Master Reverse Parking Skills

[VonIker]

When reversing into a parking space, turn the steering wheel fully to the right when the right rearview mirror of your vehicle aligns horizontally with the front vehicle's pillar. Continue reversing until your car forms a 45-degree angle with the front vehicle, then turn the steering wheel fully to the left to smoothly park the vehicle into the space. If there is a slight misalignment after entering the parking space, adjust the position by moving forward or backward. Depending on the direction the rear of the car needs to move, use your left hand to turn the steering wheel: if the rear needs to move to the right rear, turn the steering wheel to the right; conversely, turn it to the left. In fact, this is consistent with the steering when driving forward. Remembering this will prevent you from turning the wrong direction and becoming flustered. Before reversing, check the situation behind the car, estimate the reversing path, and ensure the front of the car won't hit any obstacles. Try not to press the accelerator while reversing and control the speed to avoid going too fast.
