I honestly feel like every single driving instructor has their own way of teaching people how to parallel park, up to a point where I am convinced that eventually I'll meet one that does it by observing star constellations for reference points and compensates for the Earth's spin momentum in order to avoid climbing the curb
That's most probably true :) First aim at the Vega, turn half of a tangent to the left, then aim your C pillar towards the half-moon and start steering 3.5 degrees towards the planet Mars, which you should be able to see with the naked eye by now just above the horizon, when it levels up with the Sirius constallation to your right, straighten up the wheel. You should be able to see the Earth from here :)
sadly, I can't use this method as my instructor has me put my wing mirror quite low. I was trying this and I nearly hit the kurb while being able to see plenty of road
Just wanted to leave a comment saying your videos helped me out so much - I'm in Glasgow and sat my test today, zero minors! Couldn't believe it but your videos are an absolute godsend so thank you for helping!
@ aw thank you so much ❤️ I sat mine at shieldhall, I was such a bag of nerves but my instructor told me to make small talk with the examiner, it actually relaxed me and helped me feel at ease. The manoeuvres are so tricky but I got mine at the end of the test (reverse bay) on the test centre. Only advice for the manoeuvres is to maybe spend a full lesson or two on them, or use the sticky dots to mark reference points in the car, my friend done that! Xxx
Hi Aman! I just passed my driving test today with only 4 minors! Your videos have been incredibly helpful in improving my driving skills. Thank you so much for all your guidance!
You do talk about body position, and you do demonstrate that your hands appear to stay on the wheel, but it would be good if you had actually said whether you actually need to keep hands on the wheel to pass. A relative of mine is convinced they can put their hand on the back of the passenger chair.
@ I was doing good, however. I failed due to a lane change where I was going slower than the posted speed limit. She had to intervene. Trust me, I did S.M.O.G, however she felt like I was a little too close to the vehicle on my right, so she stopped me. I understand that. I’m not used to driving downtown in my city, so I wasn’t familiar with the posted speed limits over there. My mistake. I’m asking my brother to take me driving there this weekend just so I’m more familiar with it, but damn. That’s all she said really; that I was just driving a little slower than usual. Other than that. I passed the reversing and everything else. It was only the speed that she mentioned. I’ll prepare for that. Sucks it’s two weeks though 😭
Thanks Aman! I passed my driving test this morning. It's mad to say I've been watching your mock tests daily for months and today I can finally say I've joined the 'pass club'. Thanks for your hard work, clear instructions and consistent posts. Hugely contributed to me passing.
This is brilliant. This is definitely recommended for beginners. As an ex-learner myself, I can safely say that this is the kind of teaching I had from my previous instructor when l was learning to park. Took me a few tries, but eventually, once l got into it, it was kind of easy to do. Oh yeah, and just to remind anyone who is thinking about learning to drive out there, don't just suddenly rush into it because you won't know what you're doing unless your instructor tells you.
Thank you for this lesson in parallel park. As a driver of 50 years I still suffer from anxiety when trying to do that manoeuvre. I must say that your description of how to do the parallel parking manoeuvre is the clearest one I have ever seen. ❤
This helpful! I was taught with a different reference points and I find them difficult when it’s not present in where I have to park! The triangle reference point made it a lot easier!!
I made my license two years ago. The instructor made me park between two cars on a slope. But it was basically an early ending of the examination. He said he put me through enough stress and I passed the examination without a mistake. And added “finally someone I am confined to let through. I should only work on being less nervous”
Hi Aman!!! i just wanted to say thank you so so much for making these videos. I passed my test on wednesday and i’m loving driving. Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!
Real world observation starts before you've even stopped. Then it's check what's happening around when you stop. If space is tight then position slightly wider from the car you stop beside. Then that allows you to put your angle on sooner then get the back in till you can start to turn in . I personally use the front left of the bonnet as reference of when I start to turn in. Then one you've run out of space behind but front still out you then go forward and left hand down and you may need to do a bit of crabbing with the front to go in . Not every space is possible without adjustment when theirr is only 40 cm front and back to spare. The main thing is going slow and keep observation going through the maneuvers.
I passed my driving test with 2 minors. Your videos were incredibly helpful. Thank you so much. I've been driving 3 weeks independently now and i still watch your videos 😂❤
I feel a little ashamed of myself. After 40+ years of driving and parking by myself, I have started allowing my car to automatically park for me.(both regular parking and parallel parking on the streets of New York City) At first, I was unsure and uneasy about it. However, after a year with the new car, I have started to get used to letting my BMW park itself. I guess it was inevitable. Back when I was learning to drive, there were no cell phones and navigation systems. Paper maps were necessary. Since I bought my first car with factory navigation 25 years ago, I ditched paper maps... I haven't had a paper map in any of my cars for well over 15 years..... I'm not even sure I know how to read paper maps while driving anymore. :)
I don't think you should feel ashamed. Times are changing. Cars today can drive themselves. I can't see anything wrong with using satnav instead of a paper map or letting the car park for you. The good thing is you will survive the final day when all satellites and electronics go down and the only way to survive the apocalypse will be to use an old car without any smart tech you will find in an abandoned garage 😉 You can't forget the skill.. Maybe overreacted, but hope you got the point 😀 It's OK to enjoy all kind of technology while knowing you can still survive without it.
@@Client76 well.... I always assumed that certain skills could not be forgotten... maybe.... I used to ride bikes from age 7 to at least ag 20. I stopped riding bikes for about 23 years. Then I got on a friend's bike and found out that I didn't know how to ride one anymore... took a couple of weeks before I was comfortable enough to ride around the neighborhood streeets. :) Also... I used to be able to speak German almost fluently before I turned 18. Didn't speak it again for almsot 30 years and I completely forgot the language.(except for greetings like good-bye and hello in German) :(
Very good video, After I parked I usually check the right wing mirror to see If I'm levelled with the car or cars behind me, If their right side is sticking out more or levelled with mine then all good.
I've got my test on Monday and this video couldn't have came out at the right time, I'm okay with parallel just sometimes struggle if I mess the reference points up. thank you :)
Aman this is the best video I have come across for parallel parking as it helped me a lot… Could you please make a video like this for 45 degree reverse bay parking pleaasssee.
Gd video. Gd refresher and reminder for me to how to parallel park. I like your tips, tricks and different ways of how to parallel park. I Have passed my test 2-3 months ago. Have not driven since passing.
Just wanted to let you know that this is useful information and I’ll keep this in mind. Got my test in just under two weeks. I’ll let you know the results. Wish me luck guys.🤞🏾
Passed at Hendon earlier this week. My 3rd attempt at an automatic transmission,decided to switch from Mill Hill to Hendon. Maybe switching test centres might work sometimes. Different branches/location ,a fresh perspective , rather than kicking tyres in the same place ? Great videos 👍
Hi Aman, Great clear examples and useful tips on reverse parking without referencing the reverse camera. On future videos could you also show a video clip on how to park between two stationary cars along the pavement which is typical on most UK roads? Thank you 😊
@@ClearviewDriving You could add tips on streets that have a decent curve to them, if you have any specific ones. I find that those are the most difficult ones the get right and "straight", since the distance to the kerb varies so that it's either closer at the wheels or in the middle. When other's have parked less than optimally (not "straight" or too far out), which is common due to this, their cars will also throw you off if you look at them.
Oh thank you Aman, after all this time driving I know what I'm doing wrong! I get my car at the angle and then I turn the wheel completely the other way, You straighten it and then back up some more before turning the other way. Oh the faffing and fannying about I've done trying to parallel park, then I realise there are people stood watching, I just drive off! Between two cars or with cars on the other side of the road, oh no not happening. You'll have to come and have a Holiday up here and film me, your Learners deserve to see how bad I am at it.
full driving licence 16 years. I don't like driving in the pitch dark. as I was driving on a main road. I was driving a safe speed as I had control of my car. a big lorry over took me. I felt a little nervous. I looked straight a head to stay calm. as a slow learner I did well.
Can you do a video of parking in a car park between 2 cars with both the 45 degree method and the 90 degree method. Either reverse bay or forward bay would be very helpful. THANKS 👊🏼💯👏🏻
Hi Aman, thanks for your videos, they’re a massive help. Really brilliant. Just a question though on this. My instructor said if the pedestrian is on a pavement, there’s no need to stop. Some clarity on this. Thanks
Brilliant video, also can you tell how to judge the distance between bonnet and front car and also back of the car cause i drive small van where there is no back window
What about when parallel parking into a tight spot? I’m amazed when I’ve done it but it definitely takes a bit longer with adjustments. My car is small but I always assume it’s longer than it is just to be safe and give myself space to get out.
To simplify I would say the same basic principles apply, but you need to go forward to and then back again once or several times to straighten the car. This is assuming you actually hit the optimal spot when you start, otherwise you might end up doing more like "wiggling" the car further and further in.
Happy Thanksgiving! We're very close to that 1 million milestone now ✨ it's crazy to think how fast we've grown! Thank you all so much for your support 😊 💕
madam you are a good instructor. the way you explain each and every point .but please let me how you can judge that you are in safe distance with the rear car ,which is parked in your rear side ,while doing parallel parking
Hi Aman, I had a question. In a real life scenario, say you're out and about and need to parallel park your car between two parked cars where there is enough space for your car, but its tight, then how would you do that? I ask as the test scenario where you have no car behind isn't usually going to happen in a city so what do you have to do differently to squeeze your car in between two? Thanks
If another car comes up you should stop to allow them to pass, if they stop to let you park first you can continue but always stay aware of your surroundings and keep checking
Do you mean between the side of your car and the car in front of the space where you intend to park? If you know what you're doing, it's more or less the closer the better (within reason) if the space you want to get into is tight (short). The further out you are, the steeper the angle needs to be to get into the space, which then makes it harder to right the car. If there's more space, this isn't as much of an issue as long as you don't start very far out. Think of what would happen if you started on the opposite side of a wide street and tried to reverse into a tight space, to exaggerate. I wouldn't recommend it to start with, given one typically has less grasp of where the boundaries of the car are with less experience, but if it's really tight I might start with the mirrors of the cars almost touching. I then partly use the side mirror to know when to turn into the space. But this is something that comes from doing this a bazillion times. The point of specific references is to have a starting point when you don't yet know intuitively when to turn in and later right the car. That doesn't mean I get it right every single time. Sometimes you get it just a bit wrong when it's really tight and have to pull forward and readjust a bit, and that's fine. And if it's really off, it's usually easier to start over instead of trying to fix it.
Took me ages to master this during lessons, failed on two tests because of my parallel park…and on my third which I passed, and was confident doing it, wasn’t asked to do. Harrumph 😑
I am not an experienced driver. Can someone tell me are these references good on most of the car? I understand each car are slightly different. How much it will affect with different car length for instances?
I am in belfast Northern Ireland have my test on December 3rd want to know do i practice from your videos or is that different testing system or criteria, in belfast northern Ireland, no any instructor have time slot this early but i need diving license asap its my job requirement
Reverse camera (if fitted) may help. I have same problem. Using reverse camera as a rear view mirror even it has some guidance lines which I never rely on 😂😂
Driving tester: "park the car." Me: breaks and shifts to park instead of finding a parking space. Driving tester: Marks F also because I sped up to 45 forgetting that the test areas are capped at 35 even without speed signs. Passes second test a month later.
What if your car doesn't have that small window. My car is small; I wait until the triangle disappears and I always go on a dropped curb. I can't ever get it right.
So the ideal candidate for this training should possess a PhD in Mathematics, Physics, Space Technologies, as well as Aerodynamics. Additionally, they should have extensive flight experience, with at least 10,000 hours flying the Airbus A380 and / or Boeing 777, and an additional 1,000 hours flying a modern fighter jet such as the Typhoon, Rafale, F-35, SU-31, Mirage 4000, or J-31b.
I failed my driving test on 22nd November at parallel parking, even I finished it at second attempt fair and square but still the examiner marked me as a serious fault
I don't like the way "parking" is tested in the UK. In the Netherlands you are just tasked to 'park'. You as a driver get to decide yourself where to park and how to park, just like how it is in real life.
You won't always be presented with the opportunity to forward bay park or pull up to an area with loads of space to park so it's important to know how to do other types of parking too. During a driving test not every student will be asked to do a parallel park it is just one of the manoeuvres that the examiner will choose at random to perform.
Who needs parallel parking. Just be vigilant, don't rush it, and there's always a space somewhere you can just drive straight into. Trust me, I've not parallel parked since 1996 when I got my licence 😮😂
@ryizzer good job I don't have to redo my test then eh. I did have to reverse around a corner, which I had no problem with. Only reversing I had to do back then :)
@jfergs.3302 you have too redo it at a certain age I'm pretty sure. I passed nearly 2 years ago says I have too redo it in 2060 something. I'm sure you can do it. I hate doing it myself but only learn and get better with more practice :)
You can choose to park in other spaces if you want to but it's still good to know how to parallel park that way if it's the only space available you'll be able to get into it. It's impressive that you've been able to avoid it for almost 30 years though haha
I honestly feel like every single driving instructor has their own way of teaching people how to parallel park, up to a point where I am convinced that eventually I'll meet one that does it by observing star constellations for reference points and compensates for the Earth's spin momentum in order to avoid climbing the curb
That's most probably true :) First aim at the Vega, turn half of a tangent to the left, then aim your C pillar towards the half-moon and start steering 3.5 degrees towards the planet Mars, which you should be able to see with the naked eye by now just above the horizon, when it levels up with the Sirius constallation to your right, straighten up the wheel.

I ask as the test scenario where you have no car behind isn't usually going to happen in a city so what do you have to do differently to squeeze your car in between two?
Thanks
Please, do these how to videos for all the manoeuvre!
Love video
Great! when we reversing parallel Park and the other car comes behind us what should we do?
If another car comes up you should stop to allow them to pass, if they stop to let you park first you can continue but always stay aware of your surroundings and keep checking
Amazing, that isn’t is hard for learning how to parallel drive a left driver. I’m only right driver from USA. lol I want it.
Awesome
i have a question what is the best way to lift the on a hill
At the very start, how do I get the correct distance between me and the car ahead , that I am beside I mean. Is it a meter distance gap ?
Do you mean between the side of your car and the car in front of the space where you intend to park? If you know what you're doing, it's more or less the closer the better (within reason) if the space you want to get into is tight (short). The further out you are, the steeper the angle needs to be to get into the space, which then makes it harder to right the car. If there's more space, this isn't as much of an issue as long as you don't start very far out. Think of what would happen if you started on the opposite side of a wide street and tried to reverse into a tight space, to exaggerate.
I wouldn't recommend it to start with, given one typically has less grasp of where the boundaries of the car are with less experience, but if it's really tight I might start with the mirrors of the cars almost touching. I then partly use the side mirror to know when to turn into the space. But this is something that comes from doing this a bazillion times. The point of specific references is to have a starting point when you don't yet know intuitively when to turn in and later right the car. That doesn't mean I get it right every single time. Sometimes you get it just a bit wrong when it's really tight and have to pull forward and readjust a bit, and that's fine. And if it's really off, it's usually easier to start over instead of trying to fix it.
@MrStonegrove thanks
Took me ages to master this during lessons, failed on two tests because of my parallel park…and on my third which I passed, and was confident doing it, wasn’t asked to do. Harrumph 😑
Looks like the universe just wanted you to be confident enough doing it before letting you pass😅
@ thanks 🤩
I am not an experienced driver. Can someone tell me are these references good on most of the car? I understand each car are slightly different. How much it will affect with different car length for instances?
I am in belfast Northern Ireland have my test on December 3rd want to know do i practice from your videos or is that different testing system or criteria, in belfast northern Ireland, no any instructor have time slot this early but i need diving license asap its my job requirement
Which country are you shooting this videos
England 😊
My car has tinted windows and limited view with horrid small windows. How would I park.
Reverse camera (if fitted) may help. I have same problem. Using reverse camera as a rear view mirror even it has some guidance lines which I never rely on 😂😂
Driving tester: "park the car." Me: breaks and shifts to park instead of finding a parking space. Driving tester: Marks F also because I sped up to 45 forgetting that the test areas are capped at 35 even without speed signs.
Passes second test a month later.
What if your car doesn't have that small window. My car is small; I wait until the triangle disappears and I always go on a dropped curb. I can't ever get it right.
16:28 tesla sentry be like: 🧐🧐
Still waiting for the next flying lesson.
So the ideal candidate for this training should possess a PhD in Mathematics, Physics, Space Technologies, as well as Aerodynamics. Additionally, they should have extensive flight experience, with at least 10,000 hours flying the Airbus A380 and / or Boeing 777, and an additional 1,000 hours flying a modern fighter jet such as the Typhoon, Rafale, F-35, SU-31, Mirage 4000, or J-31b.
I failed my driving test on 22nd November at parallel parking, even I finished it at second attempt fair and square but still the examiner marked me as a serious fault
Best tip practice practice practice the only reason people can't do is because of lack of practice
Exactly! start with these reference points and take it slow, with time and practice eventually it won't seem so bad 😊
I have a button on my C-Class that does all that. But she does it better!
also check your money in stock market ..
I don't like the way "parking" is tested in the UK. In the Netherlands you are just tasked to 'park'. You as a driver get to decide yourself where to park and how to park, just like how it is in real life.
You won't always be presented with the opportunity to forward bay park or pull up to an area with loads of space to park so it's important to know how to do other types of parking too. During a driving test not every student will be asked to do a parallel park it is just one of the manoeuvres that the examiner will choose at random to perform.
hey where are uu
Found this very complicated. Hopeless at maths and physics !
My instructor tells me to indicate before I reverse but I noticed you didn’t indicate are you supposed to? 😭
My reverse problem 😢
It's something that a lot of people struggle with, you've just got to keep practicing and it'll start to come to you a lot easier 😊
If you are able to check your blind spot then it's not a blind spot.
I have used simpler and easier way to park.
These references are for new drivers so they have a good idea of how to get started
Barefoot driving vlg
Who needs parallel parking. Just be vigilant, don't rush it, and there's always a space somewhere you can just drive straight into.
Trust me, I've not parallel parked since 1996 when I got my licence 😮😂
I live in Birmingham it was my best manuver never needed to parallel park
Redo your test then bet you would fail 😂
@ryizzer good job I don't have to redo my test then eh. I did have to reverse around a corner, which I had no problem with. Only reversing I had to do back then :)
@jfergs.3302 you have too redo it at a certain age I'm pretty sure. I passed nearly 2 years ago says I have too redo it in 2060 something. I'm sure you can do it. I hate doing it myself but only learn and get better with more practice :)
You can choose to park in other spaces if you want to but it's still good to know how to parallel park that way if it's the only space available you'll be able to get into it. It's impressive that you've been able to avoid it for almost 30 years though haha
Unscribe NOW!!!
Almost at one million 😱so proud of you Aman 🥹🩵
aww thank you so much 🥹💕
I pass yday morning in Wood Green the weather was bad but luckily I pass with one minor 🫡🎉
Congratulations 👏 👏
