What to Do When the Angle is Too Large for Reverse Parking?
1 Answers
Methods to handle excessive angles during reverse parking: 1. Steering too early: When reversing with the steering wheel fully turned, observe the distance between the right side of the vehicle and the corner of the parking space in the right rearview mirror (if it's less than 300mm, or less than two fingers' width in the mirror, and the angle between the vehicle and the parking line is usually less than 45 degrees), you can adjust the distance by straightening the steering wheel. If the distance is too close, quickly straighten the steering wheel. After straightening, continue to observe the position of the corner in the rearview mirror to ensure the rear wheels can enter the parking space, then turn the steering wheel fully again. After turning, keep observing the alignment between the vehicle and the parking lines in both rearview mirrors. When they are nearly parallel, straighten the steering wheel and stop when the lower edge of the left rearview mirror aligns with the parking line by pressing the brake and clutch. 2. Steering too late: Similarly, when reversing with the steering wheel fully turned, if the vehicle is parallel to the parking line, keep the steering wheel fully turned without straightening. Allow the vehicle to enter the parking space at an angle to create distance from the closer line, paying attention to the timing of straightening the steering wheel. Once sufficient distance is achieved, straighten the steering wheel to align the vehicle, then continue reversing slowly and stop at the designated point.
