It is better to steer early rather than late when reversing into a parking space. Below are the key points for reversing into a parking space (using right-side reversing as an example): 1. First point: When the lower edge of the left rearview mirror aligns with the parking line parallel to the left rearview mirror, turn the steering wheel fully to the right. 2. Second point: When the most protruding part of the car body and the right corner of the parking space appear to be two fingers' width apart in the right rearview mirror, turn the steering wheel one full turn to the left. 3. Third point: In the right rearview mirror, when the right corner of the parking space points to the middle of the front door handle, turn the steering wheel fully to the right again. 4. Fourth point: When you see the left rear corner of the parking space in the left rearview mirror, immediately straighten the steering wheel. 5. Fifth point: The stopping point when entering the parking space is when the lower edge of the left rearview mirror is about to align with the parking line parallel to the left rearview mirror.
