Driving instructor shares 'nice' and easy way to nail parallel parking every time

dailyrecord.co.uk:

Parallel parking is one of the most challenging manoeuvres for learner drivers and even seasoned motorists. The task requires parking your vehicle in a line of other cars, parallel to the road, which demands a great deal of coordination.This includes knowing when to turn the wheel while reversing, how much to turn it, and being aware of your surroundings.

Typically, the space is too small to drive straight into, so you need to position yourself parallel to the car in front of the desired parking space and then reverse.Fortunately, a Driving Test Success expert has shared a tutorial on how to master the parallel park in a straightforward and stress-free way.

After positioning yourself, start reversing while looking into the rear window.Taking to TikTok, the driving expert continued: "When I'm about halfway down this vehicle, and it is a small car, I'm going to lock my steering wheel to the left.

I look in my mirror, and my right shoulder to make sure it's safe. I'm going to swing out to about 30 to 35 degrees, maximum 45, and straighten my wheels."Then the driving expert starts backing straight into the space, and when the back of the car on his left side starts to disappear behind his car's pillar, that's when he starts turning the wheel to reverse it in.
