Should the turn signal be turned off when exiting a parallel parking space?

When exiting a parallel parking space, the turn signal does not need to be manually turned off. It will automatically turn off once the steering wheel is straightened. During the process of exiting a parallel parking space, it is important to control the clutch properly, maintain a slow speed, and avoid stopping midway. The timing of turning the steering wheel must be accurate; otherwise, missing the right moment can easily lead to crossing the line. The main purpose of parallel parking is to enable drivers to master the skill of correctly parking the entire vehicle in a roadside parking space on the right. This skill is primarily used to meet the needs of temporary parking in daily driving situations. Steps for exiting a parallel parking space: After hearing the voice prompt, press the clutch and brake, shift into first gear, turn on the left turn signal, and fully turn the steering wheel to the left. The car will slowly exit the parking space. When the right front corner of the engine hood aligns with the roadside line on the right, straighten the steering wheel and continue moving forward. Continue moving forward until one-third of the left side of the engine hood aligns with the yellow line, then turn the steering wheel one full turn to the right. This will allow the vehicle to navigate around the corner of the parking space and exit. Once the car body is parallel to the direction of the road, turn the steering wheel back to the left to straighten it. At this point, the car body is properly aligned, and you can exit the parallel parking test area.
