Parallel parking ...

A lot of drivers will walk miles rather than try to reverse into a parking space! This is because they were never taught this manoeuvre by their driving instructors.

The parallel parking manoeuvre was introduced into the driving test in the 1990's; before that, the first experience of parallel parking for many was on a busy shopping street with no help - this often ended in disaster! Consequently, the manoeuvre is often considered as 'difficult'.

The good news is that other new drivers, just like you, who have followed the SmartLearners programme realise that parallel parking can be quite easy. And you will soon be joining them!

The information in this section will give you an overview of the key points of the exercise. Your instructor will help you master the finer details of the manoeuvre.
