Which line should you stop at for hill start parking?
1 Answers
The optimal stopping position is the middle one of the three white lines. First method: If the vehicle is a new Santana, new Jetta, or new Skoda, there is a 'w' logo at the lower right corner of the front windshield. When seated in the driver's position, stop the car when the 'w' logo aligns with the hill start marker pole - this marks the 100-point stopping position for hill start parking. Second method: For vehicle models other than the new Santana, new Jetta, or new Skoda, use the lower edge of the left rearview mirror as a reference. Stop the car when the lower edge of the left rearview mirror aligns parallel with the upper edge of the second yellow line on the ground - this also indicates the 100-point stopping position for hill start parking.
