      I have one problem. How can you determine that your car is level with the other car in order to make the first turn to the left please? Please check 2:12.
      Otherwise a very well explained video ☺

I didn’t get parallel park in my test, but this really helped!

I also saved up my annual leave and booked a week intensive course with '2nd to none'. I also learned to just drive automatic so less to think about and I only ever wanted to drive an electric car anyway. Good luck all ❤

So it’s one turn to the Left then straighten up with one turn to the Right then reverse till the kerb disappears then it’s 2 turns to the Right then straighten up when square.
