I had completed all my driving lessons. And I have always ask my instructor, "what am I looking at from the mirror?" "At what angel or how do I know I am at the right direction?". There is no answer to my question. He told me, " is your judgement, is a feeling." I couldn't get my parking right until this morning, I am so upset and stress, I really have no idea what should I look out for or what am I looking at from the mirror, and my test is happening next Monday! I was just searching on KZbin, hoping to find an answer, and YES! I FOUND YOUR VIDEO! After I watched repeatedly a few times. I went to try it out, it works wonderfully, I park it perfectly into the slot! I really want to say thank you so much for all the effort in making all these videos. You saved me.

Thank you and good luck, remember to lower your mirrors and return them when you're finished. I have an old car where the mirrors don't lower so I have to crane my neck up very high, this is ok when you're experienced as you can do it quickly. When you're a novice you need to take your time and stretching your neck whilst trying to control the car can get exhausting very quickly.

[@MegaMum2three]

You always describe things in the most detail and make it clear. Other videos just show you the manoeuvre which doesn’t help me. I’m going to watch this video several times until this sinks in! I haven’t been taught to park using reverse 45° method. I passed in Dec and hate parking, mostly because I’m anxious and not confident at doing it. I don’t feel the 90° is practical, although I reverse into my driveway using 90° angle (but it’s not busy like a supermarket carpark!) I want to be able to teach myself to park but it’s likely I may have to get lessons with an instructor if I can’t do it. Being anxious about parking ruins the whole driving experience for me as I’m anxious the whole journey thinking about how I’m going to park! This is why I need to crack it. People tell me it’ll come with time but I’m impatient as I know as soon as I crack this I’ll feel better about driving.

[@ConquerDriving]

The more you do it the better you will get. It may be wise to reason with the source of the anxiety, I would guess it's more to do with people watching you and waiting for you than the ability to get into the space? People still have to wait for me to park and I will rarely do it in one, I like to go out straight and use the mirrors to make sure I'm central before going back again to finish.

[@Borboleta1212]

Hi, once again thank you for these extremely helpful videos - I’m watching a lot of these daily in the hope that they will sink into my subconscious before my next lesson! :) I have another question...one thing I feel quite nervous about when doing a reversing manoeuvre is that say for example, a dog or a very young child was directly behind the car , they would probably not be visible in the back window or the mirrors due to their height. An older child, adult or cyclist would obviously know to get out of the way and that this would be a dangerous place to stand so they wouldn’t remain there, but a young child or dog might not move in time. Am I overthinking this? Lol

[@ConquerDriving]

Thank you for your praise. I would not say you're overthinking this, these thoughts have entered my mind. There is an element of risk in everyday life and this is one of the risks. However it is an unlikely one as if you're aware of your surroundings you would likely see the kid or dog approaching and go out of view behind your car. Also, most animals and children won't let a car run over them, they will move out of the way, that's why it's important to go slowly to give them time to move if you have missed them. But you are right, you can't completely negate risk only reduce it as much as possible. I personally decide not to worry about things that are out of my control.

Parking on left side 1. stop when you feel like you are sitting outside the middle of the spot you want 2. Turn your side mirrors down *specifically the left one* 3. Steer all the way away from the space you want (all the way to the right) 4. Get the second line to have a small space between you and the car 5. Get close to the bay (get the line to be just at the bottom of the mirror) 6. Get angle off (steer all the way to the left) 7. Come back slowly until car is parallel to the line 8. Straighten the wheel and come back slowly until you are in the parking spot fully:) Parking on right Do the same except use your right mirror this time Step 3 changes to steering all the way left Step 6 changes to steer all the way to the right

I have a parallel already. Yes, I need to do a forwards one, got so many to do.

[@ConquerDriving]

@Sharon Reilly I'll be honest, personally I find forwards harder as I can't see the lines for most of the manouvre.

[@asultrix4155]

Hi I’ve been searching for videos on parking~ judging distance between cars and foot positions on pedals and I found it on your channel. Your channel been so far the best and very helpful. Just subscribe Thank You!!☺️👍

[@j.pa.k1976]

Thanks for all your helpful videos. Since getting a manual car, I've nearly given up on bay parking (unless I can get one of the end bays closest to the exit) and strictly parallel park and I don't care if I have to walk a km! However, since watching this video and your forward bay parking video, I'm willing to give bay parking a chance again. I find parking in my 2011 Toyota Aygo much harder than when I had a sedan sized (automatic) 1986 Buick Century.

[@ConquerDriving]

Yes totally agree, little cars like the Aygo are more challenging to park than larger cars. It's counter intuitive but that's what I find. To be fair I think it's because it's easier to control more expensive cars as they generally have better pedal sensitivities and more parking aids like reverse sensors, cameras and auto dipping mirrors. Size plays a small factor in how difficult a car is to park, most cars only vary by 20cm in width anyway.

He's really good, thank you, I passed by driving test I think as teenager but haven't driven for long time, did have a driving lesson recently but didn't go back after but finding these videos super super helpful,

[@claudiawalters5655]

Thank you so much for this, I've never been able to do this and was taught with the stickers, just beginning to drive a year after passing my test. Managed to do this twice after watching and going to keep practicing

[@zcharged8294]

[@michaelcoffey6403]

[@jyotisarda2477]

[@MomoNoHanabira]

How did it go?

[@aidalee143]

This reverse bay parking video is the best, I been looking for video that will explain step by step using the mirror. I'm so happy that I managed to do my parking. Thanks a lot
