In a metropolis where land is scarce and parking spaces are hard to find, sometimes parking even tests the driver's skills more than driving on the road. Many people have looked at the parking space in front of them, but they can't stop anyway. Some people even gave up their planned shopping or dining because of parking problems. In fact, although the layout of parking spaces in different parking lots varies widely, some common skills can still be found in the parking process. In addition, after parking smoothly, you should also pay attention to parking etiquette. Only when everyone stops regularly can our travel environment be smooth and worry-free.

Enter the basement carefully.

At present, high-rise buildings have mushroomed in cities, and their basements have become the most common parking areas. Usually, the entrances and exits of underground garages are not spacious, and some multi-storey garages are equipped with large-angle turning ramps. When driving in these road conditions, we must strictly control the speed and pay attention to the problem of vehicle tail cutting, otherwise it is a failure to ignore the tail. The way to avoid cutting the rear wheel and the car side is to start the turning process from the outside of the driving route as much as possible. Because the distance between the front of the car and the wall is better judged by the driver, it is safer to keep the front of the car as close to the wall as possible. In the process of turning, you can also monitor the distance between the rear of the car and the obstacle at any time through the external reflector. If you find that there is a danger of rubbing, you must reverse the car and turn again. You must not risk forcing your way through. Due to the poor lighting in the underground garage, the driver has poor control over the relationship between the vehicle and the environment, so be extra careful when driving into the underground garage from outside.

Try to reverse into position.

In order to cope with the increasingly tense parking environment and narrow parking spaces in the city, reversing into position is a skill that must be mastered skillfully. At present, the steering of most models is entirely in the charge of the front wheels, so when the vehicle is driving at a low speed, the forward and reverse postures will be completely different. Because the steering is controlled at the front wheel, the front part has great freedom when driving at low speed, and the adjustment of the direction angle is also easy. At the same time, the rear of the car is very stable and will not deviate greatly from the left and right.

Therefore, when parking in the parking garage, you only need to aim the rear of the car at the parking space first. In the process of reversing, the front part can also fine-tune the direction gently and delicately to avoid obstacles, and finally send the vehicle into the parking space completely. Compared with forward parking, the flexibility of reverse parking is greatly improved, so many tasks that forward parking cannot be completed can be completed, such as roadside parking with independent parking spaces, parking spaces with narrow passages, parking spaces at the top of parking passages, etc. In addition, some car owners also know that parking in reverse is more flexible and easier to master, but sometimes when parking, there are no cars on both sides, and parking in the forward direction can also be stopped smoothly. In order to save trouble, they will drive directly in the forward direction. It is worth reminding car owners that parking often requires cutting into adjacent parking spaces, and leaving is no exception. However, if there is a car in the adjacent parking space when you leave, it will be more difficult, so you should consider it comprehensively when parking.

Strictly control the speed.

No matter how skilled you are at parking, you must remember to drive slowly when parking (especially when reversing). Because the parking environment is generally narrow and unfamiliar, when the surrounding area is full of vehicles, the parking space will have a poor view due to insufficient light. In addition, pedestrians in the parking lot are indispensable. When you observe the environment and prepare to stop, there are no pedestrians, which does not mean that there are no pedestrians approaching during the whole parking process. For the sake of safety, you must always observe the surrounding environment and stop slowly during the whole parking process. To take a step back, even if there are small scratches due to poor care at low speed, the paint surface is damaged at most, which will not bring too much trouble.

Don't rely too much on auxiliary equipment.

There are many devices in vehicles and parking lots that can provide assistance for our parking, such as rearview mirrors, reversing radar, parking lot flexible stakes, vehicle stop bars and so on. Reasonable use of these facilities will undoubtedly greatly reduce the difficulty of parking, but don't pin the whole parking process on auxiliary facilities. We can judge the direction, route and relative position of the vehicle through the rearview mirror, but we don't control the distance between the vehicle and the next obstacle by observing the rearview mirror. This is because in order to increase the visual field, the rearview mirror of the vehicle usually has a certain curvature, and the distance reflected into the mirror will be distorted, which can not reflect the real distance between the vehicle and the obstacle. The reversing radar is quite effective for static and tall obstacles, but it is slow for some low steps or moving pedestrians, so it must be used in combination with your own personal observation. The facilities in the parking lot are not uniform, which can be used as a reference for parking, but the final decision is still to be mastered by yourself.
