Parallel Parking Step-by-Step for Indian Roads

Parallel parking becomes easy with repeatable reference points.

Basic method

1. Stop parallel with target car, about one meter gap.

2. Reverse slowly and turn full lock toward curb at rear-window alignment point.

3. Straighten when car enters slot diagonally.

4. Counter-steer to align parallel inside the slot.

Correction rule

If angle is too sharp, move forward once and reset cleanly.

Practice in low-traffic streets first.
