What to Do If You Always Hit the Corner When Reversing into the Parking Space?
1 Answers
If you are confident about reversing into the parking space in one go, it is recommended that you find the key point to turn the steering wheel. If you are not confident about doing it in one go, it is better to turn the steering wheel earlier. Hitting the corner when reversing into the parking space is largely related to the speed of the vehicle and the timing of turning the steering wheel. By controlling the speed well and then managing the clutch properly, you can slowly adjust the steering wheel while observing through the rearview mirror. If you check the reference point too late when reversing, the car may not be centered in the parking space. There are two types of reversing into the parking space: left-side reversing and right-side reversing. When reversing into the parking space, observe the rearview mirror at the entrance of the parking space. Compare the distance between the rear of the car and the corner of the parking space with the control line at the entrance. Generally, a distance equivalent to the length of a foot is just right for turning the steering wheel back. While ensuring a slow and uninterrupted speed, observe the distance between the car body and the parking line in the rearview mirror, and make adjustments accordingly—retreat more if the distance is too large, or advance more if it is too small.
