Reverse Parking Technique - Difficult Spaces, Driveways and Garages

Рет қаралды 476,957

Күн бұрын

Many people are taught the third line method when learning how to reverse into a parking space in the UK. This method limits you to easy spaces in only the car you learnt in. It doesn't teach you how to park in more awkward spaces, driveways and garages. On the Driving Test in the UK you can use whatever method you like, as long as it's accurate, you have good control of the car and you make effective observations. Here is a parking technique that requires practise, but once you have the skill you will find parking anywhere easy.

This guy is overwhelmingly hard working on his videos not just to run his channel but truly dedicated to teaching even the tiniest part in brief. Very impressive. I live in canada where driving is on right side, but I watch his videos to learn so much. Sincere thanks

I live in Canada and watch his videos as well. It's like having your own private driving instructor! I've been driving for over 40 years, but that doesn't mean you know everything and can't learn from a pro.

If you look at the videos through a mirror it seems more ‘natural’ for left hand drives. Just think left when he says right and vice versa.

wow this video is so timely. I commute to my campus daily and since returning to school over a month ago, I have only reverse parked once (out of fear of hitting other cars), but I don't like that since I usually park forward, when I am leaving I have to reverse out on a relatively busy road. Ive been forcing myself to reverse park in my driveway when I get home to build my skill but I do it by trial and error and I think not knowing how to use my mirrors properly make it harder. Will go to a parking lot and try learning to use the mirrors and hopefully build the confidence to reverse park in my university lot for safety. thanks for the video!

I passed my test with 6 minor faults last Thursday and have to say your videos have been a major help. In the meantime, will continue to watch your channel and future uploads/posts. So thank you for these videos, brilliant instructor. My instructor taught me to use the clutch 1st and I did use that method in my instructor's car for the practical test but in my car, using gas then clutch is definitely much better. Haven't stall once since being used to setting the gas first then clutch.

I learned the 3 line technique just to help pass my test. Then when i bought my first car it was a little shorter and when doing the 3 line technique in the carpark at work i ended up turning too shallow and cutting the line everytime. So after some confidence i scapped it and started to use the 45 degree method with using the mirrors to see the lines when reversing. So much easier.

@@catalystic6046 i sadly didnt pass but im waiting to retake it. It was going well but i made a serious near the end RIP because i was just getting more anxious and it clouded my judgement. It was a mistake i would usually never do and have never done before, but my instructor would always get angry at me when i didnt do it, so i think i chose the wrong time to try doing it under pressure so the examinar had to stop me. It hit me hard because i could have easily avoided it and possibly passed. I guess the best thing is on your test is just stick to being overly cautious if you are like me and get some minors rather than try to fix what your instructor tells you do during the test haha.

My instructor is quite strict and gets frustrated with me so it put alot of pressure on me to think about what he shouts at me for during the test. Dont worry too much like i did though and just do what you think is best without thinking about your harsh instructor if you have one :) i hope you do well for your test and even if it doesnt work out, you will always have another chance!
