What causes the left line to be pressed during right reverse parking?
2 Answers
Because the steering to the left was delayed when exiting the parking space, the car moved too far forward to the left. Then, when reversing back along the same path, the right rear wheel would get closer to the right parking line. I. Operation Tips: 1. Driving Speed: Maintain a steady speed throughout using 1st gear or reverse gear at idle speed. The speed at start should be the same as the driving speed. 2. Steering Timing: Pay close attention during reversing, grasp the key points for steering, and steer at the right moment. 3. Precise Operation: Control the driving path. During the test, the car's path mainly depends on the speed of steering wheel rotation and driving speed. When reversing, accurately observe the side lines and promptly adjust the direction to ensure the car enters the parking space straight.
Back when I drove heavy trucks, I often had to reverse into parking spaces. Most times when the right-side reversing resulted in hitting the left line, it was either because the steering wheel was turned too late or the angle wasn't estimated correctly. When reversing, you need to check the rearview mirror to monitor the relationship between the left rear wheel and the line. If the vehicle body is tilted and the steering isn't corrected in time, it's easy to hit the line. Another scenario is when the vehicle body is too close to the left side, but the steering wheel doesn't keep up with the turning speed, causing the wheels to scrape and hit the line. It's advisable to get out and check the position before reversing, plan the route in your mind, and practice the feel of one-shot parking regularly. Additionally, adjusting the rearview mirrors properly is crucial—poor adjustment leads to large blind spots and misjudgments. Developing a habit of making slow, minor adjustments during reversing can help avoid the embarrassment of hitting lines, ensuring safety and peace of mind.
