020 FAQs Part 008 - 90 Degree Parking (Forward In)
Vložit
- čas přidán 28. 08. 2024
- In this video I look at 90 degree parking (forward in). This is usually at the beginning and the end of the NSW P1 driving test. It is not an assessed manoeuvre but if the examiner has to intervene or help it can generate an F6 fail item.

I have been paying for driving lessons and my own instructor has not provide me the tip that Jimbo has done in this clip.. No wonder ive been getting to close the other car.. I was turning to early.. Thanks Jimbo I love your work..
Hey jimbo, been casually watching some of your videos, I’ve had my
Ls for two years and I need them now and Sydney has booked them all out so I had to book the most available.. which is a month away so I’m glad I stumbled across your channel it’s really helping me learn and hopefully pass!
Hi Lara so glad my videos are helping you out. Best of luck when you do your test🤞
Hi Jimbo, I am happy to have discovered your channel 2 weeks before I take the exam. It helped heaps in boosting my confidence when driving. I watched your videos everyday. I took my exam in Gregory Hills and passed it on my 1st go.
Thank you so much. More power to your channel! I shared your channel to all my friends who are learning or planning to learn to drive. I am sure it’s gonna help them a lot.
Hi Marie great news that you passed 1STGO at Gregory Hills!!!!! I'm so glad that I helped you out particularly with confidence. Thanks for watching and stay safe :)

Congratulations Kyle on passing 1STGO!!! Great work 👍 Thanks for watching and always stay safe 😃
Loving your videos! Teaching my step-duaghter to drive and you give some really good tips for those teaching others to drive. I think sometimes people forget that teaching someone to drive is quite difficult when explaining situations like parking, but you break it down really well with the diagrams and then demonstrating the practical situations. Thank you!
Hi Claire thanks for your kinds words. So glad my videos are helping you out. 😃
Omg thanks again I'm so happy you mentioned me.
Hi Ariele your story is a great story to tell. Take care :)
Ur story is awesome, no matter the doubt you still trusted yourself
Thanks so much Jimbo, passed the test first go today (105) thanks to your videos! I love how you present a wide range of possibilities for any given situation, and explain very clearly how to approach each. Thank you for doing us NSW test takers such an invaluable service, and hope you have a great Christmas :)
Hi Nyx congratulations on passing 1STGO!!! Im glad that my videos were a great help to you. Thanks for watching, have a great Christmas and stay safe :)
Hi Jimbo, after having my Ls for 8 years I passed my driving test first go at Wetherhill Park. I want to thank you as watching your videos helped me to boost my confidence as well as lower my nerves. I will continue to support your channel and spread your videos to anyone who are still on their Ls.
Wish you all the best and thank you once again.
Hi Brendan that's greats news that you have passed 1STGO at Wetherill Park. Glad I could help you out and motivate you to get it done after 8 years of Ls. Great effort :) Thanks for watching and stay safe :)
This is really helpful! Its been tough for me being on my Learners for at least 9 and struggling due to Autism and Anxiety. Thankfully my instructor and your videos have helped make this easy for me and I find myself growing more and more confident. Parking is the final area that needs work for me before I go from my test on sunday.
Thanks for watching Ellybellz. Best of luck with your test 🤞

Hey Jimbo, Passed my Driving Test at Blacktown in FIRST Goooo.. Yippyy.
Your Traffic lights videos really helped me to clear confusion on Left/Right turns. You are awesome. I fed your videos in my head before test and everywhere on test road i could re-collect your tips. That way I enjoyed the Driving test and hence passed.

Jimbo! you helped me so much i'm on a mission to pass my test with a 100% score but i'm waiting for a video from you about 45 degree reverse parking into parking spots. No one explains things better than you jimbo!
Hi mate great work on passing. I will get a 45 deg reverse video done. I'm currently doing an Ed Park Mock Test and had a few issues that's delaying it. Thanks for watching 👍
Hi Jimbo, I passed my driving test today at NSW. Watched your videos few days before the test.. it was very useful.. keep doing the good job .. Thank you for being so helpful..

(hopefully) 🤣🤣
Great news Gunoor on passing 1STGO at Blacktown. Glad you love my humour :) Also glad I could help you relax and get it done. Thanks for watching and as always.....stay safe ✌️
I failed jimbo. I got 107% and I did not indicate left when going straight on a double lane 4 times when exiting the roundabout while going straight which resulted in a fail. I got a lot of ticks which I’m happy about, if it wasn’t for this I passed. I’m so gutted that I remembered everything but that and it all happened towards the end. As I was driving back it happened. 🥺so I passed until that time came but we all learn from our mistakes. Coming back stronger next year I’ve got another test booked for a 7:30 am session. Wish me luck and I will remember to do that round about exit indicator when turning left on and make sure it’s right. Thanks jimbo wish me luck
Hi akathadrilla sorry to hear you didn't quality today. Yes come back stronger next year and smash it!!!. Feel free to keep asking questions. Take care :)
Last video i watched before test, thank you good reference point !

Thanks Jimbo, Your Videos helped me pass my driving test. From country Victoria.
Congratulations Andrea for passing in Victoria!!!! Thanks for watching and stay safe:)
I feel very comfortable parking in between two cars or just next to a car as I find big giant references points in the form of cars as compared to parking in empty car parks.
Yes the cars can help you as reference points. Thanks for your comments NH :)
Thanks for your helpful hints and demonstrations. I am putting two (2) learners, whom I mentored, through the barrel this coming week. l use your valuable hints and they are the best. I study each manoeuvre on your video prior to each session. Kind regards "Cloudwatcher" PCYC.
Hi Peter so glad that my videos are helping you with your mentoring. Thanks so much for the work you do with PCYC helping the young. Take care :)
Hi Jimbo, I failed the test today. The reason he told me is I didn't slow down to 40km when saw the police car parking with lights flashing on camden valley road. I saw the police but i totally don't know the rule until the tester told me once the test finished.
Hi up sorry to hear that you didn't qualify today. Yes 40kms past Police cars under 80km. A bit of bad luck there. Book it in again and you will smash it next time. Feel free to ask any questions :)
Just passed my test, thanks Jimbo for all your help!!
Congratulations LCB11 on passing !!!! Great effort. Thanks for watching and stay safe 😃

Congratulations Ra pi on passing today at Macquarie centre!!! Glad I could help you out :) Thanks for watching and stay safe :)
Awesome 👍 waiting for your reverse park video
Hi brow do you mean reverse parallel ? czcams.com/video/AAkgEZ1S8RM/video.html or reverse 90 deg park?
@@thedrivingtestguynsw8424 the reverse 90 degree park, thanks for the video though
I've had my learners for 6 years and have my first P's test on Wednesday in Victoria. I haven't had a mock test before, so I am actually treating my test on Wednesday as a mock test LOL. The P's test is cheaper than a driving lesson, so I won't feel like I will be wasting my money if I fail the 'mock' test.
Best of luck 🤞🤞🤞
@@thedrivingtestguynsw8424 just passed my test today. Thanks so much for all the educational videos Jimbo! You’re making our lives so much more easier and safer on the roads

Hi jimbo,absolutely fantastic work you are doing ,l can tell you for sure that your channel will grow very fast,awaiting for your change of lane video ,hopefully soon. Thanks
Hi Kamran yes i will get to the lane change vid. Thanks for the suggestion and thanks for watching :)
Hi Jimbo, I put not 2 through the mill yesterday. I got two 1st time passes, one student got 96 per cent rate, I was glad they didn't give him 100 percent, then he would be a better diver than me. Your facts on Ut-ube are great and even the dullest of students could grasp it. I recommend ALL my students look at and study your techniques. i WOULD BE YOUR BIGGEST FAN AND IMITATOR ! Best wishes and keep up the good work! Peter "cloudwatcher".
Hi Peter congratulations to your 2 that passed 1STGO!!! Great news :) Take care :)
hey jimbo, im really nervous about my driving test, its booked for tomorrow at 9:45 and i really really hope i pass first go, have been watching ur videos for ages and been driving all day just to practice because im a perfectionist hahaha, wish me luck !

Yes, thank you for mentioning that manoeuvre, I would like to practice how to reverse for parking. Many thanks.
Yes reversing into a 90 deg is a bit harder. I have this on my "to do" list.

Thank you for your help!!!
Very informative Video. Thanks, Jimbo for the video... :-).
Hey Jimbo, thanks for helpful videos!
No worries Averroes glad I could help :)
Hi Jimbo! I love your videos. I'm just wondering, does this trick (for forward in) work for larger vehicles, such as SUVs? I'm learning in a CX-5 and am scared to park between two cars. So will using the body reference work for forward in parking with an SUV, or should I use a different reference point?
I think it should. Give it a go and see how you go. With any car there will be a need to fine tune the steering.
Thank you so much
Thank u jimbo for this informative video.i request u plz make video about 90 degree reverse parking n also 45degree reverse n forward bay parking .it will be a grate help for me n also for all learners thank u
Hi Ayesha I have been thinking about the reverse 90deg park. Also I have plans for 45deg as well. Thanks for watching :)
Thanks for making these videos!
Amazing stuff Jimbo! Thank you!
Hi Adrianna glad I could help :)
You are the best
👍👍
Hey jimbo i pass first go in penrith thanks for your videos help me so much thank you😀
Congratulations Regina on passing 1STGO at Penrith!!! Great work. Thanks for supporting my channel. Stay safe :)
How do you know when you are too close to the curb or line infront?
could you do a reverse bay park example video?
Hi Jimbo, i have my driving test on thursday and im super nervous yet excited. I just want to clarify if you can still make the turn at an intersection when parked cars are obstructing a good view even though you peeked and rolled forward as much as you can. Will i fail if I do this?
Hi drei in 99.999% cases you can move in sufficiently to see at least a bare minimum view. If in the 0.00001% case the vision obstruction is so bad (and this would be for a right turn) that pushing in to see even the bare minimum would block the intersection then just turn left.
Oh yikes, never done one of these parks before and my test is tomorrow!!!
Hi Frances best of luck tomorrow :)
Hey Jimbo, thanks to your videos I was able to pass my test first go in port macquarie. Did lose a few points but meh
Congratulations Ali for passing in Port Macquarie!!! (Great place :) ) Glad I could help you out :) Thanks for watching and stay safe :)
Hi Jimbo, once you are in the space should you go through the shut down process before opening your door to see if the car is in between the lines? Thanks!
Hi Angelina, you will find that you do not need to open the door i did so for the sake of the camera. You usually can just use your mirrors. However if you want to open the door you need to secure the car first, just handbrake and put in park will do.
hi , i just want to ask I use international license so I’m thinking take driving test next week.. If I use automatic car, on the red light when stop which gear I need to use .. N or stay on D ? I cant find this answer thanks
Hi Fandira stay in D.
Hey jimbo, when I’m doing my reverse parallel parking, can I fix my side mirror and like adjust it a little bit or does that all need to be done before I drive. Because I just want to adjust my side mirror a bit more lower to see my left tire. Can I do that ?
Yes you can lower it a bit just before your start the the reverse parking Manoeuvre. Remember to raise it when you have finished.
Very helpful video
Hey Jimbo, thank you so much for your videos. I have failed four times now due to numerous reasons of not understanding the road rules here in Australia. Anyway, I wanted to confirm if we are allowed to use our front camera when doing the forward parking just before finishing the test back at the service centre? My car requires me to press a button to display the front camera. Thanks in advance
Hi Elizabeth yes you can use the camera if it is fitted. Just know that they don't mark that park. You will get a fail if you hit another car though.
Hi Jimbo, I have been watching all of your videos ever since you have started your channel. Absolutely fantastic contents. I have my test coming Tuesday :). Bit nervous. I have one query: do I always have to give exit signal on roundabout even it is single lane? Coz there's very little time specially if the roundabout is too small? Thanks
Hi Madan the examiners don't mark the single lane roundabouts only the dual (multi) lane ones. I encourage you to still signal out of them. However don't worry about the super small ones. Best of luck this Tuesday. Feel free to ask more questions :)
@@thedrivingtestguynsw8424 Thank you very much for the instant response. I have one more question :). Is there minimum speed limit I can drive during the test? What's the recommended speed? Thanks
@@madaningnam2412 Generally I advise 5kms under the posted limit unless there is a hazard that you will need to slow for. The examiners want you to be within 20kms of the limit. They don't assess this though in 50km residential. But if you are unnecessarily holding traffic up anywhere it will be a fail.
Hi Jimbo, I had my test today on Brookvale, Sydney and I nailed it in first attempt 😀. Thought it would rain but fortunately it didn't. I went through all of your videos multiple times while I was preparing for the test. Keep up with your great contents. Huge thanks 🙏
@@madaningnam2412 Congratulations Madan on passing 1STGO today at Brookvale!!! Glad I could help you out. Thanks for watching and stay safe :)
Hi Jimbo, when you line up to the line before the desired parking space, do you fully lock the wheel to the direction of the parking space before moving forward into it? Thanks
Pretty much you do but you still need to adjust that steering if you are too left or right. That's where practice helps.
so the reference point is car side mirror to the line? Thankyou
Hey Jim, got a question regarding test examiners. Why are some harsher than others. have had 2 examiners in the 2 tests I've done. Seems like the older examiners are alot more critical than the younger ones, love the videos
Hi Reily i cant really comment on examiners because there are so many variables. They are human after all and have their different takes on things. Each driving test is different in difficulty level also because of the traffic. Some people get an easy run some people get it hard. Its just how it is. Aim to be prepared for the worst case scenarios and this increases the probability of passing.
@@thedrivingtestguynsw8424 sweet! I'll keep that in mind!
Hey Jimbo, do you have a video for reverse bay parking please?..thank you
Hi Jimbo, is test might be very similar for ACT? I’m watching your videos but I’m from ACT. Thank you
Hi Ritchelle i dont know about the test in ACT. Thanks for watching :)
hey jumbo , I tried to practice today. When you say starting to turn, do u mean all the way to left or right/ dry steering ? Or do u mean gradually- somehow when my car stopped, it never parallel to the line… I can park in but just not proper position… don’t know what’s wrong
Hello Aimee it is really something that you have to practice. After a while you will get to know how much to turn the wheel to get the correct position. Keep working with your supervisor driver.
Hi Jimbo, during the test can you open the car to see the line or the examiner will open the door and see if I park between the line? If not how can the examiner tell? Thanks
Hi Tana there is no real reason you can't open the door to check. Make sure the car is in park and handbrake on. The examiners are not permitted to open the door. They can just judge it by experience.
@@thedrivingtestguynsw8424 but will the examiner mark me down for that? Thanks
@@tanafreedom1278 It will be ok if you secure the car first.
@@thedrivingtestguynsw8424 Sorry Jimbo, I know I have been asking too many questions already, just one one question for today, during the test will they ask me to park between one or two car? ( drive in 45 degree angle parking) Thanks.
Hi Jim,
I couldn't quite see your steering wheel in this video. Do you do a full lock and then start turning into the spot? Or turn the wheel gradually? And do you have any tips about how I can work out when my wheels are straight again?
Hi Evelyn the amount of steer i do really depends on where you start. As it's easy not to be in an exact same starting position each time your steering will have to adapt to that. Sometimes fast full lock then sometimes not so. The starting position is just a rough guide. It really gets down to practice. Start with the starting position I suggest (ie line up with the line before the car) and then do alot of them. After a while you get familiar with it. To judge centre steer I use a mark on the steering wheel (in my car the word SRS). I know if I am at full left or right lock if I steer back and when SRS passes the bottom the second time I am at centre. Or just simply move the car a bit and see if it moves straight or not.
@@thedrivingtestguynsw8424 Thanks for your speedy replies! I'm going out to practice driving with a friend this afternoon so will hopefully get some forward and reverse end parking practice in.
@@evelyn1805 Yes just get roughly in the start position and move slowly and turn "accordingly". If your car is not turning enough, then steer more, if your car is steering to early then slow down the steering wheel. Trial and error. Just take it slow.
Hi Jimbo!
I have my driving test in a few weeks and I’m extremely nervous, so much so that I’m scared I might purposely mess up but not on purpose (if that makes sense). Anyways, I wanted to ask if it’s okay for my car to be slightly angled/slanted when I park? Or should it be directly in and straight? Because I sometimes have to readjust to get it perfect.
Hi Kelly with the parallel park and kerbstop the examiners allow a 10cm off parallel variance before they mark a circle minor errors. That means if your front or rear is angled sideways 10cm or more from parallel.That's actually not much. So if it's noticeably not straight expect a mark down. But this is just one circle error. My advice is just leave it as fixing it up may lead you to score more mark downs if you don't do it properly. Examiners don't mark the position of the 90deg park you do at the end of the test so it doesn't matter there.
@@thedrivingtestguynsw8424 Thank you so much for your help!
Hi jimbo are you only allowed to turn left into the first lane onto a main road or can you turn left into the second lane if safe to do so? No markings on the road im turning from btw its a suburban road
P.s your videos are amazing
G'day G'day, if you are in a single turning lane then yes you can jump directly to the second lane. I call it "lane jumping" just to give it a name coz there is no name for it. Note also that you just use the left signal the whole time, you don't switch to right halfway through the turn. Dual lane roundabouts are a problem because the 2 lanes you are turning left into often have thick divider lines between them and you cant "lane jump" over that line to the second lane without some examiners getting upset. There is a bit more to it all but that's the short answer.
@@thedrivingtestguynsw8424 ok thanks for answering..this was a massive help
@@OmarGee92 No worries glad I could help :) Feel free to ask more questions if you have any :)
And also, do they make you park in between cars or only behind one that doesn’t have any behind it
Hi Akathadrilla it's not an assessed Manoeuvre conducted during the test. At the end of the test they will pick any vacant bay for you to finish in. This might be between cars or not.
@@thedrivingtestguynsw8424 what if I screw up the parking between cars to end the test 😂 I won’t but like what would happen if I would have to park in between cars to go back to the RTA after the test is over? Just out of curiosity 😂
@@gvonta6577 They don't assess this park. But if you are unable to get roughly in place and need help or the examiner has to stop the car to prevent you hitting something then that will generate a fail item.
thank you for your videos i passed on 1st time
Congratulations Sudip on passing 1STGO!!! Glad i could help. Thanks for watching and stay safe :)
Hey Jimbo, i'm not sure if the car I was planning to take on the test is suitable. You can't see the speedometer from the passengers side, are they strict on that?
In NSW they are ok with that. In facts it's a plus coz they can't tell your speed.
If I'm being safe.But do not park the car in a single go, will that affect the test?
Hi jimbo, can you please tell us about camera and tickets of fine we can get and how to avoid them?
I got flashed the other day but it was one flash, don't know if I get demerit points :(
Hi Sudeep well that's easy. To avoid a red light camera fine you have to stop before it goes red. And to avoid the speed camera fine you have to stay under the speed limit.
@@thedrivingtestguynsw8424 It definitely was a stupid question of me :D But I felt like a got flashed when I speed to switch lane because I had to turn left. Do they consider that or its a straight demerit? I'm afraid of being restricted to drive and I'm not red P
@@serenevision1831 Hi Sudeep the traffic cameras are outside the scope of my expertise. However my understanding is that if you went through the red and it flashed to put it simply.... unfortunately....ur gone.....
hi, where would be the best location for the test in Sydney area? Also what time? Thanks
Hi Anthony Generally they are all the same. They all have their quirks. Go to one where you are familiar with the roads. I prefer mid morning times being just outside school zone times.
@@thedrivingtestguynsw8424 ok thank you!
Are we allowed to look at the reverse camera during the test? Obviously we have to look through the back window but is it allowed to refer to the camera to make sure we’re going straight?
Hi Tomin yes exactly what you say. Check back window and you can refer regularly to your reverse camera. All good.
Hey jimbo if you could reply now it would be amazing. My test is in a few hours and I just wanted to know, how far away do I have to be behind the traffic light line. Where I can see the line ? How far ? Thanks jimbo
Your bumper within 1m. You shouldn't be able to see the line.
How much steering to be done while getting in and also when getting out?
Hi Navin the amount of steering is something you have to work out. You can see from my videos the amount I am doing. Practice will get you good at this.
My problem is I don't know how "fine-tune". No video talks about this
Hi Ying you may need to book time with an instructor if the videos are not enough.
In the next video, can you also please capture the steering wheel and the indication required.
No worries :)
