00:00:00
on your driving test you have to do one
00:00:01
out of a possible four parking Maneuvers
00:00:04
it's mandatory you have to on every
00:00:06
single driving test I'm going to show
00:00:07
you all of them right now so that you
00:00:08
can learn them easily and quickly once
00:00:10
you've learned your Maneuvers bookmark
00:00:11
this video so that you can spend more
00:00:13
time on lessons practicing driving and
00:00:15
less time practicing
00:00:20
Maneuvers here's the first one if your
00:00:22
maneuver is parallel parking then your
00:00:23
examiner going to pull you over on the
00:00:25
left just like this only on the left in
00:00:27
the space wide enough or long enough to
00:00:29
fit two in and they're going to get you
00:00:30
to move off next to the car that's in
00:00:32
front of you and then parallel park from
00:00:34
there so if you're practicing this with
00:00:35
your mom dad friends or family then make
00:00:37
sure that you start it from a park
00:00:38
position and move off and parallel park
00:00:40
from there so here's how I teach it
00:00:42
prepare to move off from the side of the
00:00:44
road just as
00:00:45
normal only using the clutch so that you
00:00:48
can be really accurate with your
00:00:49
starting position and what we want is
00:00:52
perfectly parallel to the car that
00:00:54
you're parking against and about 1 M
00:00:57
away from them as well right there into
00:01:01
reverse this is the important bit your
00:01:03
all around observations your main focus
00:01:06
on your Maneuvers should be observations
00:01:08
and not parking nobody cares if you are
00:01:10
good at parking what they care about is
00:01:12
if you're safe at reversing bear that in
00:01:14
mind so I'm going to check all around
00:01:16
the car just to make sure there's no
00:01:18
pedestrian cyclists or anything else
00:01:20
about to come behind me and I'm going to
00:01:22
use the slowest speed that I can make
00:01:25
the car move at to do this keeping up
00:01:27
good observations and what I'm looking
00:01:29
for for is I'm looking for the back of
00:01:32
the car I'm parking next to in the back
00:01:34
passenger window there it is and I'm
00:01:36
going to take one nice gentle turn to
00:01:39
the left keeping up my observations then
00:01:42
what I'm looking for is the back of the
00:01:44
car to hit the curb in the mirror it
00:01:47
looks like the back of the car is
00:01:48
touching the curb like that keeping up
00:01:51
my observations if a car passes me then
00:01:55
I'm going to stop to let them pass nice
00:01:59
and safely
00:02:02
and I've taken two turns to the right
00:02:05
one turn back to the left once on
00:02:06
Parallel with the curb neutral handbrake
00:02:09
and done that's it it's that simple now
00:02:11
let's run through that again in quick
00:02:13
time on the Drone cam so we can watch
00:02:14
that in action I'm next to the black
00:02:18
car and I'm reversing until I can see
00:02:21
the back of my car in my back passenger
00:02:22
window that means that the back of my
00:02:24
car is past the back of their car which
00:02:26
means that it's safe to stay left and
00:02:28
one turn left which starts to bring my
00:02:30
car in towards the curb once I see the
00:02:33
back of my car fully connect with the
00:02:34
curb in the mirror then it's time to
00:02:36
turn right and I'm going to take two
00:02:38
turns to the right I don't need to stop
00:02:39
but I need to keep up good observations
00:02:41
all the way around and then once I'm
00:02:44
parallel with the curb I'm going to
00:02:46
straighten up the wheels and stop okay
00:02:49
now for the next maneuver which is
00:02:50
called the right reverse this is the
00:02:52
only time a driving instructor will ask
00:02:53
you to pull over in a safe place on the
00:02:57
right hand side of the road check your
00:02:58
mirrors and signal move across to the
00:03:01
right if there's a vehicle oncoming it's
00:03:03
clearly their priority first so you're
00:03:04
going to let them go first go handbrake
00:03:07
and neutral and then your examiner will
00:03:09
give you the next instruction which is
00:03:11
I'd like you to reverse back two car
00:03:12
spaces don't worry if you go back too
00:03:14
far your examiner will just say stop
00:03:16
that's enough if you don't go back far
00:03:18
enough then they will ask you to carry
00:03:19
on reversing so it's not really a test
00:03:21
of if you can manage two car spaces
00:03:23
again it's just a test of if you can
00:03:25
reverse safely so the main thing that
00:03:27
you're looking for on this maneuver same
00:03:30
as with all the others is safe
00:03:31
observation let's try it into reverse
00:03:35
checking all around the car and I can
00:03:36
see that there's a pedestrian on my left
00:03:38
I'm just going to stay stationary
00:03:40
because this we are not trying to do in
00:03:41
a hurry we are trying to do it safely
00:03:44
and once that pedestrian's gone and is
00:03:46
out of the way or out of my danger area
00:03:49
I'm going to reverse back again as
00:03:50
slowly as possible I'm not trying to set
00:03:53
lap records I'm not trying to be Usain b
00:03:56
or Michael schacker or leou Hamilton or
00:03:58
Max V stappen I'm glancing in my right
00:04:00
mirror to see my position on the curb if
00:04:02
I can see it getting further away I'm
00:04:05
going to ster towards the curb and let's
00:04:06
not over complicate this if you're going
00:04:08
further away from the curb and you want
00:04:10
to if you want the car to go that way
00:04:12
steer that way if you're getting closer
00:04:14
to the curb and you want the car to go
00:04:15
that way steer that way don't over
00:04:17
complicate it and think opposites just
00:04:19
steer the way you want the car to go if
00:04:21
you have to stop because there's a
00:04:23
vehicle or a pedestrian in the way then
00:04:25
make sure you do a full Sixpoint check
00:04:27
checking 360 all around the car before
00:04:29
you C carry on again I'm going to stop
00:04:30
for these cyclists because they are in
00:04:33
my danger area stop for anything that's
00:04:35
passing you closely I'm going to check
00:04:37
all around before I start moving again
00:04:39
and then I'm going to go back a little
00:04:40
bit more I've actually lost track of how
00:04:43
far I've gone the examiner will stop me
00:04:45
though I can see I'm getting a little
00:04:46
bit closer to the curb so I'm just
00:04:47
nudging the car away with the steering
00:04:50
wheel keeping an eye on that mirror to
00:04:52
make sure I haven't gone too far not I'm
00:04:54
still nice and close to the curb that's
00:04:57
about enough it's that simple this is
00:04:59
your dream maneuver if you get this
00:05:01
maneuver then you're laughing all the
00:05:03
way to the bank when you're pulling away
00:05:05
though if there is something blocking
00:05:06
you in front of you you can ask the
00:05:08
examiner to help you and check down the
00:05:10
road and see if there's anything coming
00:05:12
sometimes they'll say they'll help you
00:05:14
and sometimes they won't but it makes
00:05:16
your life a little bit easier so now the
00:05:18
examiner asked me to carry on again I'm
00:05:20
going
00:05:21
to drive on when it's
00:05:25
clear making sure there's nothing coming
00:05:27
down the road towards me safe is if
00:05:29
you're pulling away from the left you
00:05:30
want it to be nice and clear before you
00:05:32
set off next maneuver if the maneuver
00:05:35
that you have to do on your driving test
00:05:37
is Bay parking forwards or backwards
00:05:39
your examiner will direct you into a car
00:05:41
park direct you where you need to be in
00:05:43
the car park and then they will stop you
00:05:48
in the aisle to give you your
00:05:50
instruction and the instruction for
00:05:53
forward Bay parking is you can pick a
00:05:55
bay either on the left or the right side
00:05:58
it's up to you and you don't have have
00:05:59
to tell the examiner which Bay you're
00:06:01
picking whichever one you think is going
00:06:02
to be the easiest to get into preferably
00:06:04
one that's not next to another car and
00:06:07
then remember just like with all the
00:06:09
other Maneuvers this is more about your
00:06:11
safety in a car park your safety
00:06:13
reversing or parking than your accuracy
00:06:16
or how well you park so I'm going to
00:06:18
pick that one because I'm right next to
00:06:19
it already plus you want to pick for
00:06:21
forwards a bay that's further away from
00:06:23
your car so right now it would be really
00:06:25
difficult for me to get into a bay
00:06:27
that's on the left side cuz I'm too
00:06:28
close to them I'm going to pick one
00:06:30
that's on the right and how I'm going to
00:06:32
do this is I'm going to line up my door
00:06:34
mirror which is actually already
00:06:36
perfectly lined up and I'm going to pop
00:06:37
my door mirror on top of the line the
00:06:40
first line of the bay that I want to get
00:06:42
into then I'm going to check
00:06:45
around going to signal to let everyone
00:06:47
know what I'm doing and again really
00:06:48
slow speed as soon as I start moving I'm
00:06:50
going to start turning into the
00:06:53
bay keeping up that observation all
00:06:56
around once I'm parallel straighten up
00:06:59
the wheels and stop if you want to and
00:07:01
you're not sure that you're in the bay
00:07:02
you can open your door once the car's
00:07:04
secure hand breaking neutral or parking
00:07:06
neutral if you're in an automatic open
00:07:08
the door check the line I'm inside it
00:07:11
and then the examiner will give you your
00:07:12
next instruction you will have to do
00:07:14
some reversing if you're on your driving
00:07:17
test this is your reversing if your
00:07:19
Maneuvers forward Bay Park you have to
00:07:21
reverse out of the bay so your maneuver
00:07:23
is not done yet keep focused it feels
00:07:26
like you're done but you're not done yet
00:07:28
so perfect observation checking all
00:07:31
around the car to make sure that there's
00:07:33
no one around you it doesn't matter if
00:07:34
you cross the lines of the bay while
00:07:36
you're entering or exiting the
00:07:38
bay but you have to keep up good
00:07:41
observation while you're exiting the bay
00:07:43
make sure that if you're in a oneway car
00:07:45
park you exit the bay the correct way
00:07:47
and you're driving the correct way in a
00:07:49
one-way car park this car park is
00:07:51
two-way so I'm going out this way and
00:07:54
I'm going to exit let's run through that
00:07:56
again on the aerial shot I've positioned
00:07:58
as far away from the bay as possible to
00:07:59
make my job a lot easier I've positioned
00:08:02
my right wing Mirror On Top of the first
00:08:04
white line of the bay that I want to get
00:08:05
into check 360 signal to the right then
00:08:08
when my car moves I steer all the way
00:08:10
nice and briskly to the right and I'm in
00:08:13
the bay okay let's say though that the
00:08:15
maneuver my examiner wants me to do is a
00:08:17
reverse Bay Park no problem you can
00:08:19
still do that in a public car park most
00:08:22
of the time though you'll do that in a
00:08:24
in the driving test center car park
00:08:26
before your driving test starts or at
00:08:28
the end of your driv having test but if
00:08:30
it's in a public car park then your
00:08:32
examiner will do the exact same thing
00:08:34
direct you into the car park and then
00:08:36
they'll ask you to stop and tell you
00:08:38
what you're going to do next so the next
00:08:40
thing I'd like you to do is reverse into
00:08:41
one of the Bays either on the left or
00:08:43
right you can pick the bay carry on in
00:08:45
your own time so I'm going to pick a bay
00:08:47
on the left this time with reversing you
00:08:48
can start a lot closer to the Bay it
00:08:50
works better here's how it works pick a
00:08:53
bay I've picked this one I'm going to
00:08:55
park with my back to that trolley
00:08:58
shelter I'm going to go three lines
00:09:00
forward from the edge of this Bay
00:09:03
one two three and I'm going to line that
00:09:06
up with my shoulder I've got a tiny bit
00:09:10
past it be accurate with all of your
00:09:11
reference points cuz they're there for a
00:09:13
reason you want to be accurate in the
00:09:14
bay and you want to give yourself the
00:09:15
best chance of being able to
00:09:18
park yeah I'm really happy with that I'm
00:09:20
going to look around because observation
00:09:22
and safety is the most important thing
00:09:24
on maneuvers and then as soon as I start
00:09:27
moving I'm going to steer to the left
00:09:29
nice and
00:09:31
brisk keep up observation because you're
00:09:34
going backwards keep up effective
00:09:36
observation make sure that you're
00:09:37
looking 360 and the next thing you're
00:09:39
looking for is when your car is parallel
00:09:42
with the bay which is exactly now you
00:09:46
should be able to see when you're
00:09:47
parallel in your mirror cuz you can see
00:09:50
the line in the mirror or if you look
00:09:51
directly forwards then you can see when
00:09:54
you're parallel because the Horizon of
00:09:55
the car park all of the car park
00:09:57
Horizons match up with the line of your
00:10:00
Bonnet you're not quite done yet
00:10:04
though go backwards until you're fully
00:10:08
in the
00:10:09
bay and stop handbrake
00:10:12
neutral yep I'm inside the
00:10:15
lines let's close the door properly and
00:10:18
then you're done you've done your
00:10:19
reversing elements so now the examine is
00:10:21
just going to tell you to drive forward
00:10:22
and exit the car park okay let's go
00:10:24
through the aerial shot on this one I've
00:10:26
picked the bay that I want to park in
00:10:28
which is again behind the the trolley
00:10:29
shelter I'm counting three lines from
00:10:31
the edge of my bay there's one there's
00:10:34
two and there's three that line has to
00:10:36
line up with my shoulder so I'm looking
00:10:38
over my shoulder and directly down that
00:10:40
line into reverse gear check 360 as soon
00:10:44
as my car starts reversing I'm going to
00:10:46
turn briskly all the way to the left
00:10:48
constant observations as I'm moving
00:10:50
backwards the next thing I'm looking for
00:10:52
is when my car becomes parallel with the
00:10:54
bay that's where I'm going to straighten
00:10:56
up the wheel and keep reversing until
00:10:58
I'm fully in the bay and stop I hope you
