How to Do Reverse Parking

#shorts
When you reverse park, do you re-adjust your car a few times? Did you know there is a technique that helps you reverse park - in 1 SHOT?

Locate the parking stall you want to park in. Turn on your signal to inform others you’re parking.

* REFERENCE POINT 1: 2nd Car’s Side Mirror or 2nd Stall Line
Drive forward and pass your target parking spot. Locate the car that is parked 2 stalls ahead of your target parking spot. Align your side mirror with the car’s side mirror that is farthest from your target parking spot. Make sure your car is about 2.5 to 3 feet (0.9 meter) away from the back of that car.

If this parking stall is vacant, you can instead align your side mirror with the stall’s side line that is farthest from your parking spot.

This point of reference works if you have an average compact or standard size car. If your car is much longer, you will need to drive up about 2.25 or 2.5 vehicles ahead, instead of just 2.

Now check your mirrors to make sure there are no other cars or people approaching.

* REFERENCE POINT 2: Turn your wheel all the way
Turn your wheel all the way towards your parking spot. Remember to keep checking for pedestrians and cars, while you are backing up.

* REFERENCE POINT 3: Turn your wheel 1.5x in the opposite direction
Back up until you’re straight and parallel with your spot. Then turn the wheel 1.5x in the opposite direction to straighten out your wheel. Continue to back up until you fit your spot. Good job. You did it!

In our next video, we’ll show you the easiest way to reverse park using the 45° Method.

Well at Walmart if you go past the parking spot someone will get your spot. That won't work in the hood.

[oreolight]

Me: Driving past the spot
Random car: Taking that spot while I'm still backing up

[natkobratko]

U dont need to go that far and turning it all the way is too much u will end up on the other car

[gummy]

If you start backing up from there, you’ll just end up backing into the other white car

It’s so weird how driving instructors teach us this technique instead of the diagonal reverse parking because the second you drive pass the vacant bay and look back, it’s gonna be taken lmao

[eeiz]

I will not suggest this kind of parking, Really???

[Polo_]

That’s not how car reverse physics work… your just gonna hit the silver car when backing up

[CitizenWea]

Dad, Why are we taking so long? Wait a second son, bring me the tape measure, I need to be 3 feet away.

[mpqggdq]

This is the weiredest parking technique I've ever seen.

[veet]

By the time you put it in reverse, I took your parking spot 😂

[itoburrito]

If you got that far past the spot it won’t be there no more lol

[xxviiirkyjqn]

Go past it and then the car behind you will take the spot.

[YOULOOTWESHOOT]

By the time you arrived to the next car someone already took up your spot 😂

[mattcee]

Then a Karen will stand in front of the parking spot saying that it was hers first

[noahhuraan]

What? If I turned my wheel all the way and backed up id definitely clip the car next to me if I haven’t already backed into it.

I’m looking to book my G2 test soon, sometime in April/early May. I’ve yet to even attempt parallel parking, three point turns, or reverse parking, but I’m confident with these tutorials I’ll execute them well. They seem practical, easy to follow, and easy to hone with practice.

[giovannadepaula]

it seems so easy when I see someone do it or when Im watching a video myself but when Im behind the wheel I look like an idiot LOL

[mryuazengisa]

[stewi-_XL]
