What Causes the Vehicle Body to Cross the Line After Parallel Parking?
2 Answers
Parallel parking with the vehicle body crossing the line means that the body's projection has already exceeded the line, which is considered as touching the line in the driving test. Additional information: The driver's license examination is a test to obtain a motor vehicle driver's license. The content and passing standards of the examination subjects are uniformly set nationwide. The examination is divided into three subjects and four tests, covering theoretical knowledge, field driving skills, road driving skills, and civilized driving-related knowledge. The examination subjects are as follows: 1. Subject One: Examination on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge. The structure and basic question types of the examination question bank are formulated by the Ministry of Public Security, and provincial-level traffic management departments of public security authorities establish the examination question bank for their respective provinces (autonomous regions, municipalities) based on local conditions. 2. Subject Two: Examination on field driving skills. The test items include: reversing into a parking space, stopping and starting on a slope, turning at a right angle, driving along a curve, and parallel parking. In cities like Shanghai, Subject Two consists of nine mandatory test items: reversing into a parking space, turning at a right angle, parallel parking, driving through a tunnel, stopping to take a card, driving along a curve, making a U-turn on a narrow road, emergency stopping, and stopping and starting on a slope. 3. Subject Three: Examination on road driving skills. The basic test items include: preparation before starting (walking around the vehicle counterclockwise, fastening the seat belt, turning on the left turn signal, shifting gears, releasing the handbrake, and honking the horn), starting, driving straight, changing lanes, passing through intersections, parking by the roadside, passing through pedestrian crossings, passing through school zones, passing through bus stops, meeting vehicles, overtaking, making U-turns, and driving at night. 4. Subject Four: Examination on safe and civilized driving knowledge. Test items: knowledge related to safe and civilized driving.
When the car body crosses the line during parallel parking, it's usually due to my driving technique issues. I often find myself turning the steering wheel too late or not straightening it in time, causing the tire trajectory to deviate too much and directly cross the line. Another reason is improper speed control, such as reversing too quickly, leaving no time for minor adjustments, resulting in the car body tilting and going out of bounds. I've also experienced inaccurate perception of the car's dimensions, especially when driving larger vehicles like SUVs, where blind spots are more common, and visual distance judgment can be off, making it easy to cross the line. It's recommended to practice more with empty parking space simulations or attach small mirrors inside the car to assist with observation, which can help reduce mistakes. Additionally, always check the position before parking to ensure there's enough space, avoiding sudden braking that could cause the car to jerk forward due to inertia. In daily driving, I always leave some margin, take it slow, and don't rush—skills will naturally improve over time.
