Should You Signal First or Shift Gears First When Parallel Parking?
1 Answers
When exiting a parallel parking space, you should shift gears first, then turn on the turn signal. Below are the penalty standards for parallel parking: 1. If the vehicle's body crosses the line after stopping in the parking space: This results in a 100-point deduction, failing the test, and requiring a retake. 2. If the wheels touch or press against the lane boundary while driving: This results in a 10-point deduction. 3. If the vehicle is not parked within the parking space: This results in a 100-point deduction, failing the test, and requiring a retake. 4. If the left turn signal is not turned on when starting: This results in a 10-point deduction. 5. If the vehicle stops midway: This results in a 100-point deduction, failing the test, and requiring a retake.
