Why is the car always tilted when reversing into the parking space?

[LaGenesis]

Reversing into the parking space with a tilted car body is usually caused by inaccurate steering control. It is recommended to observe the left and right rearview mirrors carefully while reversing, adjust the vehicle position, and avoid making excessive steering corrections. Keep the speed low and use slight braking to make small adjustments to the car body position. Additional information: 1. Subject 2: A total of 26 training hours are required. This includes 2 hours of theoretical knowledge and 24 hours of practical operation. Among these, 8 hours are dedicated to training for reversing into the parking space, stopping and starting on a slope, parallel parking, curve driving, and turning at right angles. 2. Subject 3: A total of 40 training hours are required. "Road driving skills and safe driving knowledge" require 16 hours of training, while the practical operation of road driving skills requires 24 hours of training.

Buddy, it's totally normal to mess up parallel parking – even us old hands used to screw it up back in the day. Basically, it's all about coordinating steering and distance. Turn the wheel too early and your rear end swings out; too late and you'll bump the wall. Newbies often fixate on the front of the car while the back keeps drifting off course. Remember: however much you turn the wheel, you gotta straighten it back. Keep an eye on the gap between the parking line and your car in the side mirrors – if it's uneven, adjust immediately. Oh, and sitting bolt upright while craning your neck? That’ll just make things worse. Relax your shoulders, lean sideways if needed, and widen your field of vision. Pro tip: in slightly sloped parking lots, double your steering corrections.

When I first started learning to drive, my attempts at reverse parking could make the instructor laugh in frustration. Every time, I'd spin the steering wheel like it was burning my hands, only to end up with the car tilted like the Leaning Tower of Pisa. Later, I figured out the trick lies in turning gently and correcting slowly. Steering isn't about speed—it's about watching the car's position. The moment you see the car body parallel to the parking lines in the rearview mirror, straighten the wheel immediately. Impatience is the worst enemy—going too fast guarantees a crooked park! Keep the clutch steady underfoot, and reverse slowly to make minor adjustments. Don't just stare at the mirrors either; occasionally glance forward to avoid scraping the wall with the front bumper. Yesterday in the mall's underground garage, someone honked impatiently behind me, and sure enough, I parked crooked again—nothing like pressure to mess things up.

The issue of reversing at an angle essentially stems from a misalignment between steering wheel input and vehicle body position. There are two common scenarios: first, forgetting to straighten the wheels after full lock, causing the car to move with persistently angled wheels—no wonder it won't go straight; second, misjudging parallelism through the rearview mirrors when the car is actually still tilted. A handy tip: if the rear veers left, steer right to correct, and vice versa. SUVs require extra caution due to their height, as rearview mirror distortion is more pronounced. Many modern cars feature a rearview mirror tilt-down function—remember to activate it for a clearer view of the rear wheels. Beginners should practice the half-turn correction method multiple times, avoiding full steering adjustments at once, which leads to smoother control.
