Is Failing to Reverse into the Parking Space Due to Stopping Too Early?

[KhloeFitz]

Failing to reverse into the parking space is indeed caused by stopping too early. When aligning the vehicle body and reversing into the parking space, you need to observe the left rearview mirror. Once the lower edge of the mirror aligns with the dashed line at the parking space entrance, press the brake and clutch to stop. At this point, the vehicle should be inside the parking space. If you stop before reaching this alignment, the front of the vehicle might cross the line, which is considered stopping too early. Below is some relevant information: 1. Introduction: 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 maneuver the vehicle in a confined space. Reversing into a parking space is a key evaluation point in the driver's test, requiring the driver to correctly reverse the vehicle into the parking space from both sides while in motion. 2. "Non-character" Parking: In "non-character" parking, the vehicle must be perpendicular to the target parking space. Using the B-pillar of your vehicle as a reference point and the first parking space as a marker, you can generally reverse into the third parking space.
