When exiting a parallel parking space, should you turn on the signal first or shift gears first?

When exiting a parallel parking space, you should turn on the turn signal before shifting gears. Here is some additional information: Precautions: Parallel parking no longer uses poles, but instead uses ground markings as the boundary of the parking space. For students learning to drive with a C1 license, the length of the parallel parking space is 1.5 times the length of the vehicle plus 1 meter. Drive the vehicle to the front of the parking space parallel to the direction of travel, then reverse into the space to the right rear without any pauses. As long as the vehicle is parked within the boundaries without crossing the lines, it is considered a pass. Grading criteria: If the vehicle crosses the line after stopping in the space, 100 points are deducted. If the wheels touch or press against the lane boundary lines while moving, 10 points are deducted. If the vehicle is not parked inside the space, 100 points are deducted. If the left turn signal is not turned on when starting, 10 points are deducted. If there is a pause during the maneuver, 100 points are deducted.
