What is the reason for always having more space on the left side when reversing into a parking space?

This situation occurs when the steering wheel is turned too early. In such cases, simply adjust by turning the steering wheel to the right, following the principle of "turn towards the side with more space." Precautions for reversing are as follows: 1. There is a key point in reversing into a parking space, which is maintaining a 30 cm distance between the car body and the corner of the parking space. Once this point is identified, reversing into the space is not difficult. If the distance is greater than 30 cm, turn the steering wheel fully; if it is smaller, adjust accordingly. If it is too narrow, straighten the wheels first and then make further adjustments. During the reversing process, it is essential to stay steady and keep the speed slow, allowing time to make necessary adjustments. 2. During reversing, control the clutch properly and maintain a steady speed. A slower speed provides more time to correct any issues that may arise if a point is missed during the process. It is advisable to wear thick-soled shoes while driving, preferably travel shoes with a thin front and thick back with a slight slope. Thick soles make it easier and more stable to operate the clutch, which is particularly suitable for beginners. 3. Turn the steering wheel fully as early as possible rather than late. Turning it fully early allows for adjustments, but turning it fully late leaves no room for correction. 4. Ensure the car body is fully inside the parking space. Failure to do so may result from either missing a key point or hastily pressing the clutch and brake due to excessive speed. Therefore, controlling the speed is crucial. 5. After the car body enters the parking space, use the side mirrors to adjust the car's position. If the rear end is wider on one side, turn the steering wheel towards that side.
