Nah, just practice. If you master observations, steering and speed control and are able to identify your car’s reference point, you should be fine.

True to what you say, examiner doesn’t care if you are good at parallel parking, all he cares is are you doing your all around observation and safe. I was a bit wonky on my parking on my test but as long as I am within the line, not obstructing and most importantly doing your all around observation, it’s a pass.

Not necessarily! I failed even it I parked it with all the observations done correctly. They put it down as a major because I didn’t leave a car lengths space with the car in the front🥲 they said if I reversed at the end it would have been fine.

Passed my test last month. My instructor exclusively taught me the 90° reverse park. I’ve not had a single opportunity to do that manoeuvre in car parks. Rather, I’ve had to learn 45° which is sooo much easier for me. I don’t know why I wasn’t taught this initially.

Hello Francis, in my car the view from the back window is VERY restricted. I can see more from my rear camera than from my window and yet, the examiner will expect me to use the back window and not look at the screen. How to balance that? I need to be safe but looking only at the back window (of course mirrors too) will not give me all the information I need to return in a safe manner. I have to say that I am driving Tesla model 3.

@@san4iu it’s more about your blindspots, over your left and right shoulder, not looking out of your back window. Your camera shows you what’s behind you but won’t show you a pedestrian approaching from the left or right side behind your car.

@@DrivingSchoolTV thank you. Some instructors insist on looking back and check the blind spots. If I look back while reversing, I won't see a child just behind the car. If I reverse from a bay in a busy car park I won't be able to see a car coming from just by looking back (blind spot blocked by another car) but I can see it from the rear camera. It happened a few times...

Good luck everybody looking to pass their test soon. I passed my 2nd test back in 1971 (53 years ago!) but can still benefit from videos such as this to improve my reversing into supermarket/pub parking spaces with vehicles on both sides! The aerial shots are awesome to visualise what is going on, but (unfortunately) won't be available on your test! Observation is key and, if in doubt, reposition to try again! Better safe than sorry!

My instructor is refusing to teach me to park without cameras. I told him the car I’m getting doesn’t have them and he said “buy some they are only £300” got my test in aug and it’s stressing me out. He also said I don’t need to use handbrake& parking break when doing a parallel park on test. Is this true? I’m learning auto if that makes a difference
