What to Do If You Can't See the Reference Points Due to Short Stature While Practicing Driving?
1 Answers
Here are the solutions for not being able to see reference points due to short stature while practicing driving: 1. Use a cushion: Prepare a thick and firm high-density square cushion, about 3-5cm thick, made of non-collapsing and non-deforming material. The size should be similar to the driver's seat. Always carry it with you during practice and exams. You can also prepare an additional ordinary cushion to place behind your back. 2. Adjust the seat and rearview mirrors: During practice and exams, make sure to adjust the seat properly by pulling it all the way forward. Don’t worry about others’ strange looks—mastering the skill and passing the exam are what matter most. Additionally, always adjust the rearview mirrors, especially the left one, tilting it downward so that the front door handle is fully visible inside the mirror, and about one-third of the rear door handle is visible. Avoid showing the entire car body; instead, half of the car body and half of the ground should be visible in the mirror to easily locate the corner of the parking space and reference points.
