How to use reference points for parallel parking in real life?
1 Answers
Here are the methods for using reference points in parallel parking: 1. Adjust the side mirrors: Adjust the mirrors to a suitable angle for better visibility of ground markings. 2. Observe the mirrors: After getting in the car, look at the lower edge of the left mirror and the boundary line of the parking space. When the lower edge of the mirror covers the boundary line, stop, turn the steering wheel fully to the right, and observe the right mirror. When the distance between the car body and the front right corner of the parking space is less than 30 cm as seen in the mirror, turn the steering wheel halfway back. Then, when the car body is parallel to the white line as seen in the left mirror, straighten the steering wheel. Stop when the lower edge of the left mirror covers the left boundary line of the parking space. 3. Find the distance between the car body and the boundary line: The requirement for parallel parking is that the distance between the car at the starting line and the roadside line should be about 1.5 meters. 4. Control the speed: There are specific speed requirements for parallel parking; never drive too fast.
