What is the first reference point for left reverse parking?
1 Answers
For left reverse parking, the first reference point indicates when to fully turn the steering wheel to the right, which is when the left rearview mirror aligns with the right starting line. The method for identifying reference points during reverse parking is as follows: Finding the first point: There are multiple reference methods for the first point. The first method is when the left rearview mirror aligns with the right starting line; the second method is when the angle between the right rear window center pillar and the garage entrance line coincides. Finding the second point: When the vehicle is completely inside the garage and centered, it indicates that the right-side parking is nearly complete, and you should stop. This stopping position is the second reference point. There are also two common methods for the second point. The first is to observe the left rearview mirror and the garage entrance line—when the lower edge of the left rearview mirror aligns with the garage entrance line, press the clutch and brake to stop, completing the right reverse parking. The second method is to check the left rearview mirror—when the front corner of the left door handle aligns with the garage baseline in the mirror, stop the vehicle.
