Failing to reverse into the garage means hitting the garage door or sideline during the reversing process. The key points and evaluation criteria for the reversing into garage test are as follows: Key points of the reversing into garage test: Accurately judge the vehicle's position and manipulate the vehicle to correctly reverse into and exit the garage from both sides by referring to the ground markings. During the test, the vehicle must not stop while moving forward or backward. The vehicle must reverse from one end of the road control line (the vehicle body crosses the control line) into the garage and park; then move forward to exit the garage, pass the control line at the other end, reverse into the garage again and park; finally, move forward to exit the garage. Evaluation criteria for the reversing into garage test: Not following the prescribed route or sequence: deduct 100 points; vehicle body crossing the line: deduct 100 points; failing to reverse into the garage: deduct 100 points; stopping midway: deduct 100 points.
Failing to reverse into a parking space refers to the situation where a car cannot be parked into a parking spot or bay while reversing. I often encounter this issue when driving, especially in crowded parking lots. This could be due to a malfunction in the reverse parking sensor system, such as sensors being blocked by mud or debris, preventing accurate detection of obstacles behind the vehicle. Alternatively, the camera lens might be blurred, or rain and fog could affect visibility, making the display unclear and hindering the driver's view of the rear. Additionally, the vehicle's electronic control unit (ECU) might malfunction, causing the reverse assist function to fail. It could also be due to driver error, such as incorrect angle adjustment or misaligned wheels. In such cases, I usually stop to check if the sensors are clean and then attempt manual reversing, as relying solely on electronic devices can sometimes be unreliable. Safety comes first, so it's best to regularly have these systems inspected at a professional repair shop to ensure they are sensitive and reliable. This helps avoid bumps and scrapes while reversing, protecting both the car and personal safety.
