Paralell parking... That was by far the easiest thing to do back in driving school but when reality kicked in and I was with my own car and there were actual cars around... 😢
Another top: most cars even mine which is a 2005, let you adjust the steering wheel up and down! There’s usually a handle which allows you to move it underneath the steering wheel😊
Yikes, I really felt called out when you talked about people who drive miles just to avoid parallel parking 😂 Only learned it with a camera in my lessons so I'll definitely try this
I've always loved the challenge of parallel parking! But it's really a skill that comes with experience. I never thought it was fair to insist kids doing their driving test should be required to know how to parellel park because it takes time to develop that skill.
It is fair though to expect that when you pass your driving test you know how to parrallel park (or park in any way actually) If you cant you shouldnt get your license. you clearly dont know the mechanics of a car yet.
I just got my drivers license last week. Already accidentally cut someone off. I'm beyond terrified of driving in town, no idea how to calm my nerves enough to pay attention to everything around me
2:30 😮😮Very important. A coworker had her hands too high when the airbag went off. Months of physical therapy and she still does not have full use of her wrist. Company sent everyone to defensive driving and they stressed 8-4 position.
8-4 provides a lack of control if you need to make a large turn of the wheel suddenly with one hand and thus makes it hard to avoid an accident. If you put your hands at 10-2 and do not place your thumbs inside the rim of the wheel, there will be no problem with the airbag in the rare chance it may deploy. Of course, if you are wearing your seat belt and have the seat and wheel adjusted properly, there is no need for a steering wheel airbag. NASCAR, Formula 1 and almost all other cars used in racing do not have airbags.
Maybe it works for some people but personally it's better to learn from practice and feel rather than relying on reference points that will change from car to car and one situation to the next. Just carry out the best observations you can and move at the slowest speed. You can change the angle of the car a lot if you go really slow
Parallel Parking is way easier in my driving school since the space is enough for my car, but when I started driving and try parallel parking I always doubt myself lol
I'm one of those that will drive a mile just to parallel park. I practiced it in my yard with my mom and dads cars. When I went to take my test I passed it with flying colors.
I'm definitely in camp backing in. Its easier (and safer) to leave the spot nose first. An easier way to do it is approach the spot as close as you can and when you're sitting directly in front of it turn the wheel hard until you're at a 45 degree angle to the spot, that way you actually see it in your side mirror. Even better if you have enough room to do it is to start turning earlier and just go until you're lined straight with the spot.
To steer the car in reverse, turn the wheel in the direction you want the rear of the car to go. *Turning the wheel to the right steers the back of the car to the right. Turning the wheel to the left steers to the left.*
Thanks a lot. Look at the car on our sides helps a lot to avoid crash in the back of the car, mostly in case of missing warning sensors. Thanks again to remind me how to "correctly" park the car in accordance to degree/angles.
its always hard for me to park parallel thats why i always avoid parking this way. always nervous, but with this video, you made it so easy. thank you bright side. who is with me, comment down below.
At 7:53 you said "turn the steering wheel left", but the wheel in the animation moved toward right. Jokes apart, awesome video for beginners, thumbs up!
Before I had got my license I had bought a '78 Chevy Impala. It was a boat on wheels. When I had to go for my test I asked my sister if I would use her "Rabbit". I only did that because I knew I would never be able to pass the parallel parking part of it.
Great tip want to learn how to park? Go to a park nearby preferable at night or morning when there aren't many poeple or cars around and practice parking into the slots untill you get the hang of it. That is what I did and now I drive and park where ever I want to. (My dad sometimes says "it's too tight for you to park there" and next thing you notice I'm in the parking slot. Practice makes perfect. I started driving at 16 now I'm 20 And I dont know how I eneded up here lol. Just remember practice and practice so you wont get stuck in reality.
@@emelycamilo8484 yeee. Well drive with someone that has experience just incase and at nights preferable and at the zone limit untill you get the hang of it. Just don't be scared
Few more tips for beginners when parking 1. Shift the gear to Neutral and engage parking brake. 2. While unparking, remember to disengage parking brake
4:45 . After experience I say this. If you are parking into perpendicular parking, I recommend only parking on your left. Use the same mirror rule (aka when your left mirror is lined up with the first line of the parking you want, fully turn and slowly move in). Since your car is on the right side of the road, you have more space to safely go into the parking spot without the risk of hitting the further most car. Additionally, you probably won't have to reverse and adjust. If you have to park on the right side, I would wait till traffic is clear, adjust your vehicle so your car is on the left side of the road, and then turn right into the parking spot using the mirror rule. After parking in parking garages and normal lots almost daily for university and work, I can say this confidently. It's never worth clipping your car or the pressure that comes with it. Be patient and safe. Hope this helps any new drivers or drivers who didn't really know this.
Paralell parking... dud the driving instructor told me the exact same thing you said in the video im wishing that they dont make us to do it when you do you G1 Exit
I have just completed my driving classes but yet to master this skill of parallel parking. Here in India the classes were only for 12 days with 1 hour each day. May be I require some more time for this. But I just want to keep on driving. I am very much excited to drive and keen about when I will go driving again even though I practice every day. The most dreadful thing is when someone overtakes me and goes driving in front of me immediately requiring me to slow down a bit.
Not sure there was something I hated to learn to do, but there was things I wasn't happy doing. And that was to start again, from a red light. Some road crosses are on a slightly tilted ground in Denmark. So I often were rolling backwards a bit before I got the car driving. I was so afraid of rolling back down in to the one behind me. I learned the parking box thing pretty well. And I make sure that I am never in too much of a hurry to straight the car up after a parking. Backing far enough out, to see the markings on the ground for the chosen spot out of my windshield
I think I basically know everything but when I was still learning I should've payed more attention to parallel parking and asked the instructor that I do it more often cos we only did it like 2-3 times
Thanks for the explanation. I like the way you explained about parallel parking. However, my driving instructor does not follow this method. She just asks me to drive straight into the space we see. The reason being my instructor has been teaching me driving on a busy road since day 1 and yells too much because of small mistakes that actually harms my confidence. She should find a safe spot to teach driving. Secondly, she never explained me properly that when to speed up and press the brakes when taking right or left turns. I continued doing mistakes since 2 days and she has been yelling too much. When I asked her at the end of my class, then she explained that we must press the brake to go bit slow when turning to left or right and when at a junction, a slow speed must be applied as our car has stopped to watch out for cars coming from both ends. They must clear these things before a student starts driving and most important, a new student must be taught driving at a safe area, not in a busy area or else they will be scolded a lot for mistakes as it will become a matter of life. Its not the student's fault here.
Best tip when parallel parking is to make use of your bumpers. Meaning, if you see a spot that needs a little "adjustment", then do it. You have bumpers for a reason
Nice video! I'm a new driver and have to park in a perpendicular lot at home and still get nervous quite often. A few times it took me at least 10 minutes to park. Any videos on how to drive on the highway?
I have only practiced driving on empty roads so far. I am terrified of having to drive around other people or cars because I'm scared to run someone over. I suppose I'll warm up to the idea eventually.
I had a friend tell me, "just focus on what you're doing and stay in your lane. Other drivers will do the same." Easier said than done I know, but for me that brought an ease of mind. Best of luck 🙏🏾

A great teacher. Thanks for the video, clearly stated and sounds easier to drive and park a car. I wish you could teach me in person. Haha i don’t know how to start.
Thank you, BRIGHT SIDE. This is rather helpful. I'll keep this in mind when I do parking before my test. Although, I do have one question: why would anyone back in a parking space? It seems superfluous.
you should be adjusting your side mirrors in your driving position (not leaning) and then set it so that you can just see a bit of the car and so high that it's about 1/2 road and 1/2 sky and trees
Another great one. Not doubting you but, I have failed the test as well and have reread the book in my state. My state's book still says 10 and 2 o'clock when behind the wheel. Guess the writer doesn't have an airbag🤔.
Yeah, that's what I was implying when I said that. None of mine have driver side airbags but, have passenger side so I normally do either 10 and 2 or 9 and 3. Writer of our state's book must primarily drive older models like mine without airbag on driver side.
