After hearing the voice prompt "pull over," downshift to reduce speed and maintain the speed below 20km/h. After confirming safety, turn on the right turn signal. The next step is to find the 30cm mark. Pay attention to the vehicle, adjust the body, and stop when the distance between the vehicle body and the road edge line is less than 30cm.

The key to pulling over is controlling your speed. I usually start by turning on the right turn signal for at least 3 seconds to give following vehicles time to react. Then, I check the right side through the rearview mirror and slowly move right when it's safe. Steer gently, stopping when the tires are about 30 cm from the curb. Be especially careful not to let the wheels touch the solid line—some test sites have reference lines. After stopping, immediately shift to neutral and engage the handbrake. Before turning off the engine, always check for sudden e-bike movements. Keep speed around 10 km/h—too fast risks errors, too slow may invite honking.

From my personal practice experience, the most challenging part of parallel parking is keeping the car body straight. I usually start decelerating 200 meters in advance and maintain straight-line driving when changing to the right lane. Only when I see the curb edge appear in the right-side mirror do I begin to steer slightly to the right, making small adjustments gradually. Meanwhile, I pay attention to the distance between the car body and the curb. When the door handle in the mirror just covers the road edge line, the distance is about right. A special reminder for beginners: don't rush to brake. Wait until the car is straightened before stopping slowly, which helps prevent stalling or crossing the line. It's normal to feel nervous during the test—taking three deep breaths before operating can significantly improve performance.

The core of this project is the control of safe distance. First, ensure the turn signal is on for more than three seconds before moving the steering wheel. When moving to the right, use peripheral vision to check the right side of the hood. When it approaches the road dividing line, the distance from the car to the roadside should be approximately 30 centimeters. When parking, pay attention to completing three actions simultaneously: straightening the steering wheel, fully depressing the clutch, and lightly applying the brake. Don’t forget to engage the handbrake before shifting to neutral after parking—many candidates lose points due to excitement and forgetting this step. During rainy days, the road is slippery, so start the operation 50 meters in advance to avoid sliding out of the designated area.

I pay special attention to the details of parallel parking observation. Before pulling over, first check the distance of the car in the right rearview mirror, and keep the steering wheel angle at about 15 degrees. When you feel the car body is getting close, turn your head 90 degrees to check the position of the right front wheel—at this point, you shouldn't see the full curb in the rearview mirror. There's a trick at the moment of parking: observe the alignment angle between the passenger window frame and the curb—this visual reference is particularly effective for judging distance. I practice this maneuver every day after work in my neighborhood, and after three weeks of persistence, muscle memory will develop. Practicing at night is especially good for honing spatial awareness—just remember to turn on the parking lights for safety.

This operation needs to be completed in four stages: First, decelerate in advance to below 20 km/h, turn on the signal light, and confirm the safety behind; Second, start moving to the right, keeping the steering wheel stable with a turn not exceeding 30 degrees; Third, pay attention to the sound changes of the tires contacting the road surface while observing the distance between the edge of the right mirror and the curb; Finally, when parking, gently lift the clutch while applying light braking. Before the test, it's best to place an auxiliary marker on the co-driver's door as a visual reference point. During practice, I'm used to recording my operation with a mobile to promptly correct any issues with the car's tilt. Checking the tire wear position after each practice session can intuitively improve the operation.
