Parallel Parking: 30 or 50 cm from the Side Line?
1 Answers
Parallel parking should maintain a distance of approximately 30 cm from the side line. Below are specific details about parallel parking: 1. Previous parallel parking method: Four poles were placed on the ground to symbolize the four corners of the parking space. One criterion for successful parking was whether the vehicle entered the space smoothly without touching these poles. 2. After the implementation of the new traffic regulations: Parallel parking no longer uses poles; instead, ground markings are used to define the parking space boundaries. For learners obtaining a C1 driver's license, the length of the parallel parking space is 1.5 times the vehicle length plus 1 meter. Drive the vehicle to a position parallel to the parking space, then reverse into the space without any pauses. As long as the vehicle is parked within the marked boundaries without crossing the side lines, it is considered a pass.
