What Causes the Left Side to Be Wider When Reversing into a Parking Space?
1 Answers
Reversing into a parking space with the left side wider is usually caused by turning the steering wheel back too early. When reversing, it's essential to maintain a steady speed. When reversing from the right side, pay attention to the distance between the car body and the right side—if it's more than three fingers' width, there's no need to straighten the wheel; if it's less, straighten the steering wheel. When you see the left bottom corner in the left rearview mirror, immediately straighten the wheel and then make adjustments. Below are some tips for reversing into a parking space: 1. Control the driving speed—use first gear or reverse gear at idle speed throughout the process. 2. Control the timing of steering—during reversing, observe carefully and master the key points for turning, steering at the right moment. 3. Control the driving path—during the test, the car's path mainly depends on the speed of turning the steering wheel and the driving speed. When reversing, aim for the side lines and adjust the direction promptly to ensure the car enters the space straight.
