What Causes the Vehicle to Cross the Line During Parallel Parking?

[StCecilia]

It is due to starting the reverse too late, causing the entire vehicle to enter the space without enough room to straighten, directly crossing the right line. This is the most common reason for crossing the line. Another reason is reversing too quickly without adjusting the vehicle's position, resulting in the rear wheels crossing the rear line or the vehicle touching the line. When exiting, the driver may focus only on adjusting the front of the vehicle and neglect checking the distance between the right wheel and the corner line in the right mirror. Turning the steering wheel too quickly can cause the right wheel to cross the line while exiting. Below are additional tips: Precautions: When reversing, watch the right rearview mirror. When line 1 disappears from the right mirror, turn the steering wheel fully to the right while moving slowly, then check the left rearview mirror. When the intersection of lines 3 and 4 appears in the left mirror, turn the steering wheel two full turns to the left while moving slowly, and continue observing the left mirror. Before reversing, ensure the vehicle is about 30 cm from the right line. When reversing, as soon as the right mirror covers the corner line, immediately turn the steering wheel fully.
