Whats The Easiest Way To Parallel Park - Reverse Parallel Parking 121 Method

I often get asked whats the easiest way to parallel park and this is it. The reverse parallel parking 121 method works almost every time. I show in this video how to parallel park using the 121 method and what to do if it goes wrong.

The easiest way to parallel park is a great way to learn this reverse manoeuvre and easy to practice with a friend or parent as part of private practice. The easiest way is also a good way to park after your driving test. Most people use a form of the 121 parking method they just don't know it as the easiest way to parallel park.

Thank you so much for this video, it has helped me so much! Do I have to indicate when performing a parallel park in my real test? :)

[finfoxwolfpack]

Yes, this makes so much sense. Thank you, super helpful

After watching quite a lot of similar videos, I found this one with the aerial view to be superb.

Nice simple video thank you. I been taught 121 but I got too close to curb earlier while practicing and couldn't think how to sort it out so definitely found this video helpful ☺️

[rdu]

You make it so easy sir, unfortunately I have a terrible eye for estimating distance, I hope I can get the rhythm right always

[m.ceniza]

Thanks for showing what happens if we do it wrong. I’ve been taught to use the other car’s light as a reference instead of the 45-degree angle.

[foodbitsninja]

you make it look so easy ! haha i cant even. have to watch it again and again till i get this one right, ty

[Tedcze]

Thank you for that. Less reference points than other methods and the 45 degrees is important.

Had my daughter for lessons in her car and unfortunately she has been taught to use cameras in car that she was learning only and could not park using mirrors in her new car. The way you teaching is the way I was taught over 30 years ago 😂

[sophiemay]

Thank you! I keep ending up too far away from the kerb. I’ll try to remember not to steer so early next time. Do you get a minor fault if you have to correct the position? Got my 3rd driving test attempt tomorrow 🤣 Just making sure :)

[enitanibiwoye]

The way I do mine is slightly different, hence I never get the right position, I don’t do my one turn until my car is in alignment with the middle of other car door, might try this one.

[itztoasts]

Got my test In 2 weeks today exited yet nervous taking it in my own car also, wish me luck 🎉

How do you know when to start turning your wheels the other way in the 45 degree section ? How do you know when your car is 45 degrees and safe to turn and it will park without hitting the curb and isn't too far away from the curb ? What reference do you have to use ?

[samuelbedeau]

How do you deal with steering being different on cars? The car that I learn in requires less turns in manoeuvres - eg) half turn the wheel, whereas my own car I have to swing the whole wheel round when doing parallel. Thanks

[foodbitsninja]

hello sir, would you get a minor if you forward a bit to adjust before reversing to finish? thank you

[davidthomas]

Has the driving test changed in the recent years? Unless I am misremembering, hitting/touching the kerb was a fail for the test? Is that not the case?

[stevenv]

Hi, how did you know when to turn right? Did you have a reference point?

[zxerk]

So your allowed to move forward and back to adjust and will recieve no faults?

I am really bad at judging how close I am to the car in front and the back. Especially the back. i find myself having to get out and get back in the car and do this a few times. I do not want to inconvenience anyone and be parked too close to someone.
