Is hitting the line during reverse parking due to steering too early or too late?

[VanRonan]

Both steering too early and too late during reverse parking can cause the vehicle to hit the line. Here are methods to determine if steering is too early or too late: After fully turning the steering wheel during reverse parking, observe the distance between the corner of the parking space and the car body. If it's less than 30 cm, it indicates steering too early. If the distance is greater than 30 cm, it means steering too late. When performing reverse parking, after spotting a parking space on one side, drive past the space while adjusting the vehicle's direction to form an angle with the parking space. If space allows, aim for a 45-degree angle. Pay attention to the lower edge of the left rearview mirror; when it aligns with the parking line, immediately turn the steering wheel fully and continue reversing slowly. At this point, the timing of steering is correct.
