I JUST PASSED!!! This morning with no minors!! thank you so much for the videos, they really helped

[@worlddriving]

No fauts is superb. Congratulations to you and your instructor. Appreciate you watching the videos. Keep up the safe driving and enjoy it 👍

The worst thing about parallel parking are the witnesses

[@milkshakeflake]

Tell me about it lol. My new car is longer than my old so I'm constantly reversing into a space and then can't fit so I have to leave it and find a new one as I watch these so called 'witnesses' eyeballing me with inner joy and a semi awkward smirk lol

[@trock111jomy]

To b honest, i got saved by a witnesses today who said at the last opportunity STOP before i was going to hit a parked car because i thought of using my camera instead of my practised skill !

[@claireburroughs9025]

Haha I know right 😂

[@hollieeebee]

I passed my driving test just over a month ago after 2 and a half years of learning, with my test being rescheduled 6 times due to the pandemic - which definitely knocked my confidence! I binge watched your videos the days coming up to my test, and I really don't think I would have passed without them! They helped me a lot! Thanks for creating such helpful videos to help people like me, keep up the great work! :)

Failed my test today, been on and off learning for the past 6 years 😂

I literally thought I was reading my own comment right here 😂 I passed on the 3rd of September after also 2.5 years of learning with 7 cancelled or postponed tests and 2 actual attempts 😬 along with over £6000 🙄 I knew it was going to be expensive but had no idea it could reach such extravagant costs obviously down to the pandemic and needing so many lessons on and off during lockdown and restrictions 😑 I passed with 3 minors on the 3rd and just collected my brand new Volkswagen polo on the 29th 😁 I’m absolutely in love with driving I feel so happy and like I’m able to live my life, had no reason to learn how to drive until now at age 36 but all the waiting frustrations and money spent has been 100% worth it 😁 How are you doing with your driving? I’m ok but my street is extremely narrow and where I usually excel at reverse parallel parking it’s really nocking my confidence because I’m struggling to get into the tight spots the road is extremely narrow and swinging out leaves me mounting the kerb 😬 any tips? Or in fact any other tips at all from one new driver to another? Congratulations and welcome to the beautiful new world of freedom 😉

[@hollieeebee]

@@tzuamourshihtzu9871 Oh damn I’m so sorry to hear you went through all that! It’s so expensive, if I’m honest I didn’t realise how expensive learning to drive would be, let alone keeping a car! 😂 Oh wow congratulations, that’s awesome to hear! You deserve it! And there’s no age limit on when you can learn to drive, you’ll do it when you’re ready 😊 I’m doing okay actually, my confidence has gotten so much better! Haha same with my road, it’s so stressful! Honestly, I’m not too sure - I’ve kind of been learning as I go along really? I feel like I’ve learnt so much more since passing! Thanks so much, and you too! 😊

[@tzuamourshihtzu9871]

@@hollieeebee oh yea I mean I did expect it to be expected I anticipated well over £3000 however not over £6000 infact it was probably closer to £7000 🙄 however it’s certainly been worth it, I absolutely love my car and I love driving I don’t even have anywhere to go but make a point of going somewhere every single day at least once for a drive just to gain as much experience as possible really as I need to travel down south before Christmas so first time on the motorway 😬 I hear it’s actually easier than the dual carriageways but I’ll have to be the judge of that when the time comes 😆 They do say don’t they that once you pass your test and get a car you really start to begin learning and I can definitely confirm that’s the case for me I feel so much more confident than a month ago 🤷‍♀️ keep driving happy and safe.x

Just don't stare at it when reversing 👍

[@maxono1465]

this is an insanely good tutorial, i always avoided parallel parking as much as i could but i might try it now

[@uroojiqbal3194]

Same here i feel I can’t take a risk specially in tight parking spaces 😢 While learning I always parallel parked perfectly but after passing I’m very nervous in parallel parking .😩

[@joythornz]

This is a good follow-up video on parallel parking Chris as this is what mostly the situation in actual life could be. I've passed my test 3 years ago and have not done any parallel parking as I avoided it as much as possible. But today was a test of memory and skill when I have no choice but to do parallel parking between two cars. It was not bad but not as smooth as I want it to be. This was my first attempt alone after passing 3 years ago, I was proud of myself that I managed to park my car nicely between two cars. Thanks to your video on parallel parking Chris (the other one) because I remember this method and I specifically choose yours because I do drive a Ford Fiesta too, lol. Keep up the good work!

[@worlddriving]

Thanks! You too.

[@cindypersaud8805]

Awesome

[@JoshRamwell]

That's an excellent way to teach it! Thank you World Driving Man🙌🚘😁

[@martyhopkirk72]

I use blind spot mirrors for parallel parking. Also useful for seeing the lines in parking spaces when reversing in 🙂🙃

[@sntzzz]

Passed my test today. Your videos helped a lot. Keep doing the great work in helping learners with your videos.

[@worlddriving]

Congratulations on passing your driving test. Appreciate your comment :)

[@Zahra-tz4ob]

I still can't parallel park, i avoid it completely! 🤦🏻‍♀️😭

[@Scythenn]

Nice mr2 there

[@soniasingh-chahal7263]

Note to myself to watch this video whenever i get stuck parallel parking!

[@kingthranduil8807]

In my country, you literally have 3cms gap in front and back. And when you parallel park, there is always an asshole behind you honking his horn for you to hurry up.

[@thenonexistinghero]

It's not quite that bad in my country (Netherlands), but it's a bit tighter than what you see in this video. Well, if I feel like a space is too tight or if I fail 2-3 times, I will just look for another space (which could sometimes take a while). I'm getting better, but I suppose this may just be my weak spot for now. I've gotten a lot better than I was a year ago when I started driving in my own car. It does always feel great if I manage to nail a tight space in 1 try.

[@kingthranduil8807]

@@thenonexistinghero i live in the Philippines and our cities are so heavily populated so literally every bit of space is used as a parking space. Adding to thr chaos are the undisciplined motorists. 😂

[@targetecho27]

got my 5th attempt tomorrow, haven't been able to practise in a parents car because they dont have one and with covid it has taken 3 years and thousands of pounds which i really dont have while at uni. My last test was delayed 3 times and if i fail tomorrow then the next available test will be november. fingers crossed i pass finally at some point!

[@worlddriving]

Hi! Good luck. Keep positive and try to visualise how well you're going to drive. You can do it 👍

[@zaramorris6181]

How did it go??

[@Xufoo]

Great video as always. Can you possibly try and find a street where there are cars parked on both sides and the road isn't wide enough (Due to cars at the other side) to get the initial 45° angle? Cheers

[@worlddriving]

Thanks. OK I'll try and find one 👍

[@AiePro26]

Passed in 2019, still can't parallel park lmao

[@jackjoyce1744]

That’s not that bad. My cousin has been driving since 1997 and they cannot do it after all these years.

[@phantasticmrphasma9874]

@@jackjoyce1744 both bad. The apathy of only doing the minimum as long as you can just about get by (even though it will always cause inconveniences for you and those around you) is just not good enough 😅

[@OmarAli-ho9dn]

Thanks.

[@davidkaye8712]

C'mon tighter than that, in my street we are lucky to get a cigarette paper between parked cars, we also have the pleasure of the road being no more than 3 meters wide with cars parked down one side and garden walls scraping our paint as we mount the pavement to parallel park. Here you have bags of room I would kill for that much room after I return from my 300 mile daily commute.

[@worlddriving]

That sounds tight! OK, I'll find something similar :)

[@alakazamhippity3192]

300 mile daily commute? Sure buddy

Was taught how to parallel park with a camera, any tips on how to without one?

[@TA-_-456]

Hiya can you make a video on reverse bay parking in-depth with reference point please I seem to can’t understand. In my instructors car there was sticker to look for point, by now that I have passed don’t no where to look now in a different car😩

[@worlddriving]

Hi! This video might help kzbin.info/www/bejne/rl66k4ifltpld5o

[@claireburroughs9025]

Il never understand why instructors don't teach you how to do it in smaller gaps, because that's real life isn't it? I mean i kind of understand they don't want there's or. Other cars to be damaged but when you pass, and have never parked in a small gap, it can be quite daunting

[@alannidiamsay9187]

My examiner took me in a tight space meaning only 4 cars can only park on that residential area and there were already 2 cars parked and iam thr 3rd car to park..behind me its available ,just a car lenght. But as i aligned my car along with the car iam about to reverse to upon observation before reversing there was a red car (a driving instructor car with student) so i stopped! but that instructor car has stopped like waiting for me to carry on with my parallel parking .. as i start reversing and turn my wheel to the left (as im parking on left, ) looked around and stopped ( my car is positioned on a 1'oclock now..i saw the instructor red car parked on the only available spot .as its a tight parking space .im basically as a learner having my practical test that moment doing a pararell parking in between cars in a tight space. (I was expecting my examiner to ask me to just fine anotger spot to the my reversing, but he didnt and im nkt sure if he saw the red car parked on the last available space. I did my reversing anyway but i dont havr enough space to straightened my car as the space behind was tight. 😔 i had no minors but 1 serious bec of thr pararrel parking in a tighy space in between cars.

[@WolswijksChannel]

Unfortunately failed my test due to not wanting to stay in a junction when lights changed. Oh well, your videos really helped me minimise the minors, thanks 😊

[@phantasticmrphasma9874]

What do you mean? About the junction

[@sobster123]

Failed my test cus of this maneuver cus the examiner took me to an awful place.. narrow road and cars behind and in front of me. A big car got close to mine as it decided to go past whilst I was at an angle. Like how's that even my fault!

Very helpful video, thank you. Can I ask. When I am doing my test and I am asked to do this procedure, what do I do if another car stops close behind me preventing me from carrying out the manoeuvre? Thank you

[@worlddriving]

Drive on when it's safe and the examiner will try to get you to do it again later.

[@steve00alt70]

I can nose first park and reverse park in a straight line but cant reverse parallel and why would you want to go thru that effort? I avoid doing it even tho been driving for a decade now zero accidents too.

[@mbsmile78]

Hi Chris, am confused with the reference point @1:40 in this video as they are different to the reference points of using fron door pillar on your other reverse parallel parking videos.

[@worlddriving]

Hi! You have to turn earlier if you want to park in a tighter gap. You can park within a 2 car length gap on the driving test so you don't have to turn in so early and potentially scare the examiner 😂

[@alexandra3804]

In another video you say to have the front/back of the other car disappear into the pillar of the front window. In this video is the pillar of the back window. Which one is it? Getting confused :(

[@worlddriving]

This video shows parking into a tighter space which means that you have to do the first turn a little earlier. You don't have to park into such a tight gap (and potentially scare the examiner with getting really close to the parked car) on the driving test so you can do the first turn when the front / back is (roughly) at the door pillar.

[@whitecupog4411]

Hi, Is there any reason you only did one full turn to the left and not completely?

[@worlddriving]

You could do that and if it works then keep doing it 👍

[@mavihs26]

How do you make sure the front of your car doesn't hit the other vehicle ? Am I lining up too close to the car ? It seems to be a constant issue of mine. Sadly I did scratch a car but i've learnt not to risk it again but it's still an issue.

[@L.C.Sweeney]

Either you're pulling up too close to the car in front or you're turning in too early, or both.

[@mavihs26]

@@L.C.Sweeney I haven't done much parallel parking but, I wasn''t lined up properly. I'm not sure if it was mentioned in this video or another but it seemed to fix my issue. Basically my car wasn't lined up correct in the sense the back of my car wasn't aligned to the back of the car to my side. My driving instructor never exactly taught me how to park a car just how to park his car if that makes sense. I used to line up my car wrong so no matter how I turn in im just likely to touch.

Hi Chris @World Driving as always good explanation, why does it look like the car is parked further away from the kerb than the other cars.

Hi! I noticed that too when watching back. It could be the position of the camera or the fish-eye lens.

[@lauraireson6358]

@@mbsmile78 I passed my test a couple of weeks ago and used the rear camera to help me reverse bay park. I once asked my instructor about if I was allowed the camera on on a test, and she said they can’t turn it off.

Yes, you can use it but you'll still be expected to keep observing around for others 🙂
