Ok, so the is your shoulder inline advice I think is slightly off, because it depends where your sitting. Should probably be, is the line just behind half way in the window. However the line counting did help me understand why my instructor got me to reverse/turn at that point.
This is the simplest video I’ve ever watched… just watching it alone gave me confidence to understand how I need to reverse May God continue to bless you😭
Watched this video this morning and sure enough it was the first thing we did on my test. Happy to say i passed!! Thank you so much for all your videos, they were a great help and eased my nerves. Good luck to all taking tests!
My driving test took 33’ minutes, everything was perfect. At the end the examiner told to make a reverse parking in a bay at the DVSA station, and I failed on reverse parking. This one was really helpful. Thanks
You helped me pass my test! I’d never done this manoeuvre before in my driving lessons and had to give them up early July as was waiting so long for my test to come round. My partner and I practised the reverse bay park on Tuesday eve but we struggled to get it in the bay in one go as had no reference point. I watched your video that evening but didn’t get a chance to practice before my test which was yesterday afternoon. Low and behold I was asked to do this manoeuvre in my test and had to do it for the the first time from what I’d seen in your video and it worked! I parked into the bay almost perfectly without having to straighten up. I couldn’t believe it! Had it not been for your video I would almost certainly have flunked it. So thank you, thank you, thank you!! Anyone watching this who has a test coming up, trust me, it really does work!
Oh my God!!! I watched this video yesterday and tried it today. It works!!! My driving instructor was surprised when I nailed my parking.. thank you so much
Thank you! This has been the clearest instructional video for figuring out lining up for bay parking. My instructor kept getting me to use reference points on the car which is unhelpful for me as I drive a lot of different hire cars for work. Going to try this tomorrow!
You're a great teacher, I couldn't hold my finger back,I hit the subscribe button with no hesitation. New subie here. My test is due and mastering a lot from your videos.
Thank you so much for the clear formula and the visuals! I watched the video, sat to my car, went to the nearest parking, counted 3 lanes, and parked 7 times in different directions and locations without hesitation :) Thank you!
idk if the bays are smaller in UK, but i tried this on a somewhat big parking lot and i needed only about 2 bay lines from my destiny spot, but this stuff really do work.. it helps a lot to visualize where you are compared to your chosen spot.. did it on both sides.. and it worked wonderfully
God bless you, you should be nominated for the driving instructor of all times😄 when my instructor explained reverse parking I was left with the headache and the feeling that I never going to get it😄 Thank you so much 🙏👏
It really help me especially I find it difficult to reverse parking in a bay than next to car so really help me to put the last line with my shoulder, which really makes y day training very easy , Thanks 🙏
I just passed my road test in St. John's, Newfoundland😄😄🤩🤩And this video was very helpful! I am grateful to you! I almost failed because I was unfamiliar with reverse bay parking until your video helped me with tips and reminders. Seriously, thank you for helping this college guy pass and finally get his full license!
This is good. Only issue is when someone is literally right behind you the 3 line rule could be an issue. I have a Toyota Yaris which has a poor turning circle when going Forward into a bay so I reverse when possible.
I’ve been told that when doing this, I need to match the 3rd line up with the gear stick, and it works, so I’m presuming that there is more then one point to use.
i was struggling with this today in my lesson like i wasn't doing my observations properly because i was too focused on the mechanics/ reversing and steering and this helped a lot. thank you
Thank you very much for this great video. Will try this technique during my next lesson. But i was wondering whether the reference point will change if you adjust the seat??🤔
Hi great videos i have a question if your shorter you might move your seat closer towards the steering wheel and clutch - would your reference point still be your shoulder or past your shoulder.
I’ll give this a try and see if it works. I’m sceptical when it comes to references. A lot of references I’ve used whilst having driving lessons in my driving instructors car. Well they don’t seem to work in my partners Corsa at all. But I shall give this a go.
the problem with this method is that, if you turn the wheel quicker or slower this will also effect where you end up. as well as if you revers a bit faster or slower.
Yah, only applicable if you are in a pinch at the parking with too many vehicles around, however when ever possible that is not the scenario try to position you vehicle a bit slant opposite from when you will reverse park, your margin of error in bigger due to you are not reversing at a 90 degree angle
Can anyone correct me please when lining up your shoulder with the 3rd line do I full lock the steering wheel? A response would be appreciated as I struggled in my previous leosn and want to prepare for my Wednesday lesson
If you look at your side mirrors you will see the bay lines, once it’s parallel to the car, stop and straighten the wheel. Dry steering won’t fail you 😁
I passed my test last October. My instructor never taught reverse bay parking as my test center would not test it. I paid a lesson in my car to learn. For ages I was scared of getting in my car. Now I am used to very local drives I have a go at the 45 method.
How would I do this when driving a truck? When perpendicular to the parking spaces would I need to be somewhat further a way? Also someone commented that your shoulder should be a little behind the line before reversing because you could hit a parked car that is parked right before your spot. I just need to know if any reverence points change for a truck verses a compact car
I am going to pass my driving test
Me too!
me too!
me too
Me too
Me too, tomorrow ❤️
One of the most chill driving teacher I’ve seen lmao
🙌
Finally, the best reverse parking explanation I've had. I'll give this ago in my next lesson
Glad it helped! Let us know how it goes :)
Ok, so the is your shoulder inline advice I think is slightly off, because it depends where your sitting. Should probably be, is the line just behind half way in the window.

Good point
Me toooo omg. And my test is in 4 days
Definitely
This is the simplest video I’ve ever watched… just watching it alone gave me confidence to understand how I need to reverse May God continue to bless you😭
Watched this video this morning and sure enough it was the first thing we did on my test. Happy to say i passed!! Thank you so much for all your videos, they were a great help and eased my nerves. Good luck to all taking tests!
Congratulations
I have my test tomorrow and this manouvre was the one one I am panicking the most about. This helped me feel a lot better! Thanks so much ❤️❤️
Update: passed first time 💕💕💕
@@anummorata any tips please? X
Well done!
Which manoeuvre did you get as I’m struggling with reverse bay
Congratulations 👏
My driving test took 33’ minutes, everything was perfect. At the end the examiner told to make a reverse parking in a bay at the DVSA station, and I failed on reverse parking. This one was really helpful. Thanks

Been struggling a lot on how to bay park and reverse bay , your videos really helped ! Really recommend it. Watch it a few times.
Thank you so much for these videos! I kept on messing up the manoeuvres but your explanations were so simple.
Thank you so much for this, reverse bay parking is something thing I struggle with at the moment
honestly this is one of the best videos iv seen explaining! thank you so much! iv struggled with this so much!
Thanks for using the colour pattern to anticipate the parking spot and distance.... it really helps
I couldn't agree more!
Thank you Francis. Watched your videos severally and I passed my test at Liverpool this morning.
God bless you ❤️
I love all of francis videos, he explains so well and his videos are so helpful for learners like myself
Best instructor for me I have learnt something today thumbs up to you man .God bless you
Oh my God!!! I watched this video yesterday and tried it today. It works!!! My driving instructor was surprised when I nailed my parking.. thank you so much
So clear and easy to follow, the animation helped. Thanks again
I passed my test today your videos have been so instrumental! Thanks so much! God bless you and your business 🙏
I have learnt reverse parallel and bay parking from your videos and I also found your method is the best, well done keep it up🍰
Thank you for the helpful tutorial.Very well explained and demonstrated.
Thank you! This has been the clearest instructional video for figuring out lining up for bay parking. My instructor kept getting me to use reference points on the car which is unhelpful for me as I drive a lot of different hire cars for work. Going to try this tomorrow!
I got my driving licence two years ago and this video is still helpful for me
Do you receive your driving licence within 3 weeks of passing your test? Because I haven’t received mine
You're a great teacher, I couldn't hold my finger back,I hit the subscribe button with no hesitation. New subie here. My test is due and mastering a lot from your videos.
This is manoeuvre I used to dread bot practice is key! Not only that but make it simple. It’s not as scary if you break it into steps.
Thank you so much for the clear formula and the visuals! I watched the video, sat to my car, went to the nearest parking, counted 3 lanes, and parked 7 times in different directions and locations without hesitation :) Thank you!
I'm a driving instructor myself from the Netherlands for 9 years, you are great the best instruction video from the uk
You explained this so perfectly. Can’t wait to practice this technique
Thanks for your hard work on making this video! It's really helpful and very clear too.
I passed my test, I’m so grateful to God, thanks for sharing 🙏🏾💜
Am really finding your videos useful will try practice this on my next lesson
This is definitely the hardest one the animation made it very clear of what to do! Awesome formula thanks!
Thank you!
This is the easiest way to do it omg, how you break it down with the visuals is crazy !
idk if the bays are smaller in UK, but i tried this on a somewhat big parking lot and i needed only about 2 bay lines from my destiny spot, but this stuff really do work.. it helps a lot to visualize where you are compared to your chosen spot.. did it on both sides.. and it worked wonderfully
Thanks for all your detailed explanations in all your videos I passed today
This is such a simple demonstration of reverse bay parking. Thank you Francis, I will definitely practice using this technique.
wish 'id seen this before I done my lessons!!!! 25hrs and passed, just about haha, good luck to everyone who is learning!!!
God bless you, you should be nominated for the driving instructor of all times😄 when my instructor explained reverse parking I was left with the headache and the feeling that I never going to get it😄 Thank you so much 🙏👏
This is so helpful. Thank you for making this video
I’ve started my lessons and these videos are so helpful for when I do them in my lessons thankyou
We are happy to hear that they help!
It really help me especially I find it difficult to reverse parking in a bay than next to car so really help me to put the last line with my shoulder, which really makes y day training very easy , Thanks 🙏
The best driving channel I have ever seen in my life
The cartoons and highlighted edits really help. Thanks! Best video
Hope u passed ?😊🤞
I just passed my road test in St. John's, Newfoundland😄😄🤩🤩And this video was very helpful! I am grateful to you! I almost failed because I was unfamiliar with reverse bay parking until your video helped me with tips and reminders.

This is such a good tutorial, honestly.
Thank you!!! This might sound silly but i have struggled with counting these damn lines!
Its really helped me. Thanks for that video😚
Thank you so much for your videos, especially the parking ones, I passed first time🎉🎉🎉
This was sooo helpful I was straggling with this parking I think now I get it what on about thanks 🙏🏻
very nice video. appreciate the way of teaching.
nice work mate, thank u
I’ve been told that when doing this, I need to match the 3rd line up with the gear stick, and it works, so I’m presuming that there is more then one point to use.
Brilliant video, very well explained!
Thank you!!! This video is SO HELPFUL!!!
Thanks for this. Just had a minor for reverse parking.... I was taught how to do it but never told a reference point. So I'm hoping this helps xxx
i was struggling with this today in my lesson like i wasn't doing my observations properly because i was too focused on the mechanics/ reversing and steering and this helped a lot. thank you
dont worry about it i passed my test before and was driving for years then got banned and now im taking my test again and i am the same lmao
That happens to me too 😭 I'm going to learn maneovers tomorrow but there's so much other controls to focus on I forget observation
Great video mate. Thanks for the help. Top man...
don't understand why they dont teach the 45 method, this is so much more difficult and unusable in a real life situation
Thanku we will not spending to much money because of your videos best instructor
Amazing video thank you. Line is same level with your shoulder.mmmm. i keep practicing my test is next months,xxx
Thank you very much for this great video. Will try this technique during my next lesson. But i was wondering whether the reference point will change if you adjust the seat??🤔
thank u sooo much this is helping me get confident
Really helpful video! thank you :)
I wish I had seen this method before my exam tomorrow it's very easy thank you
Brilliant lesson.
Marcus is good and smart learner keep going 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
🙌🙌🙌
loved this! Thank you
Your just the best Francis 👌
this was logically explained!
Thank you
Thank you for this video has been helpful am I been struggling with this
This worked perfectly today thanks
I really like your video's Very helpful and understanding
Glad to hear that!
You are so clear 👏
YOU VERY GOOD AND I HAD LEARNT ALOT FROM YOU THAN FROM MY INSTRUCTOR.
I have my lesson Monday again am going to try this hope it works
I tried today, It was wonderful
It worked actuality on my first attempt 🎉❤
couple lessons from a mock test I’m excited
Hi great videos i have a question if your shorter you might move your seat closer towards the steering wheel and clutch - would your reference point still be your shoulder or past your shoulder.
Thanks very much sir, you made it so easy for me. May I ask you a question? Does the shoulder reference point work for any car? Thanks in advance
Excellent explanation
I’ll give this a try and see if it works. I’m sceptical when it comes to references. A lot of references I’ve used whilst having driving lessons in my driving instructors car. Well they don’t seem to work in my partners Corsa at all. But I shall give this a go.
I’m going to pass my mock test! Amen 🙏
the problem with this method is that, if you turn the wheel quicker or slower this will also effect where you end up. as well as if you revers a bit faster or slower.
Yah, only applicable if you are in a pinch at the parking with too many vehicles around, however when ever possible that is not the scenario try to position you vehicle a bit slant opposite from when you will reverse park, your margin of error in bigger due to you are not reversing at a 90 degree angle
also it can take a bit long to keep lining yourself up when there are cars behind you
Its risky to start steering while reversing. You might go off the line
I’ve got a lesson at 5pm tonight so it’s gonna be very dark, hopefully I can still do it well 😂
Can anyone correct me please when lining up your shoulder with the 3rd line do I full lock the steering wheel? A response would be appreciated as I struggled in my previous leosn and want to prepare for my Wednesday lesson
Thanks for the help!
Happy to help!
Very good overall and very safe
Thanks I'll do this saw another video doing this too
When do you know when to straighten the wheel because i really dont get the horizontal technique
If you look at your side mirrors you will see the bay lines, once it’s parallel to the car, stop and straighten the wheel. Dry steering won’t fail you 😁
Thats true. The bay lines that’s parallel to your car are your marker. Please don’t rush or get panic. Take your time n you’ll get it.
Will let you know how I get on Francis with my test.I struggled with reverse parking but now I see it
What do you guys prefer? Reverse bay parking or Forwards bay parking? 🙌
I passed my test last October. My instructor never taught reverse bay parking as my test center would not test it. I paid a lesson in my car to learn. For ages I was scared of getting in my car. Now I am used to very local drives I have a go at the 45 method.
Reverse is more advantageous because it is easy to maneuver in case of an emergency
Reverse parking FTW. It's a lot easier to back in than it is to back out
This guys is amazing
My god I really want to thank you how you make it easy to me love u
This makes me feel hopeful I can do this & maybe pass in 3 tries or less 😊
How would I do this when driving a truck? When perpendicular to the parking spaces would I need to be somewhat further a way? Also someone commented that your shoulder should be a little behind the line before reversing because you could hit a parked car that is parked right before your spot.

You really good!!!
