What Are the Tips for Parallel Parking in Subject 3?

[Samantha]

1. Find the right position to pull over: When you hear the instruction "pull over," first determine the parking spot, then turn on the right turn signal and steer the wheel 90 degrees to the right. When the middle of the car's front aligns with the curb, quickly turn the steering wheel to the left by more than 180 degrees. When the curb is between 1/3 to 1/2 of the front hood (coaches usually prefer 1/3, adjust according to the car model), straighten the wheel. If the car deviates, make minor adjustments. 2. Adjust the right-side distance until the front door handle covers the curb edge: Observe the distance between the car's right side and the curb or edge, making adjustments until the front right door handle covers or almost touches the curb, then quickly straighten the car. 3. Check the left-side mirror—ensure the front left door handle doesn't extend beyond the rear car's body: Before exiting, check the left-side mirror again, ensuring the front door handle doesn't exceed the rear car's body. If there's no reference car, observe the distance between the car's edge and the parking line. This ensures your parking position doesn't obstruct other traffic participants, avoiding scratches or accidents.
