When to Start Steering When Reversing Out of a Parking Space?

[ElleLee]

Here are the methods for steering when reversing out of a parking space: 1. Observe the right rearview mirror as the right rear of the car slowly approaches the right corner of the parking space. When the rear of the car is about 30 cm away from the corner and the right front door handle is still outside (i.e., to the right) of the extension line of the right boundary of the parking space, adjustment is needed. Immediately turn the steering wheel one full turn to the left, then continue reversing. When the right front door handle crosses the extension line of the right boundary of the parking space, turn the steering wheel fully to the right. Once the car enters the parking space and the body is parallel to the boundary line, straighten the steering wheel. 2. If the rearview mirror shows a "left wide, right narrow" position, turn the steering wheel 1/4 turn to the left, then straighten it once the car body is aligned. 3. If the rearview mirror shows a "right wide, left narrow" position, turn the steering wheel 1/4 turn to the right, then straighten it once the car body is aligned.
