Obviously you are a very good instructor, explaining everything without glazing or rushing over things. I'm a product trainer, the only right way to teach/train anyone is always assume they know nothing, even if they think they knows everything. start at the begin, explain each step or process, never rush, don't sound condescending or frustrated, everyone learns at different rates, and remember a relaxed pupil will learn more than a nervous pupil
very good video. I have been driving for 35 years but for some reason I know notice I keep on missing the curb in front on my house; good news no one else parks there bad news is hard to judge with out a parked car.
4:25 - Once I feel like that tire is close enough... That is what exactly the trainee needs to know. When the tire is close enough? Just feeling???? They need a better instruction.
Yes, somethings you just have to feel. Have you ever tried skateboarding it literally is all feeling out how to do something. Someone can teach you all the exact motions but you won’t know how to do them until you try and fail. Eventually you get a feel for it and you just know how to do it.
Driving just has so many hard things about it: judging the curb distance, judging the distance between wheels when you're driving, changing gears smoothly, driving in reverse, etc
...also, judging the car height so you know which bumps to climb over and which to avoid. Regular practice helps make you perfect. Knowing how to drive is one thing. Knowing your car well is another important thing.
I am learning to drive and I love how you explain the drivers point of view every time! Now I kinda know what I am suppose to see in the mirrors! Thanks! ❤
You are the first person speak NOT SO FAST of all you tube instructions. They are in a hurry to jam in lots of info. I understand you more effectively and easily ,like normal conversation.
This is the first time I comment for a pullover to the side. The explanation was so clear. My present instructor never taught me that calm most of the time he controls the car for me so how can I learn if he will never let me do it the way I understood his explanation. Most of the time his becoming impatient that's why I tend to become anxious and commit more mistakes. My previous instructor let me do it and just take control if I'm doing wrong I.
Wow, You explain this so neatly because when I pull over to the curb im making sure that I am just by side without figuring out all these small points you are explaining
Great idea. But fact is you cannot always use the same marker point for each and every curb. Some curbs are higher than others. One trick is to simply park beside the curb and if you see you are still far away, simply turn the steering to the right then reverse the car towards the curb. When you are now close enough to the curb, turn steering to the left while still reversing to bring the car parallel to the curb. Of course, you need to ensure you have enough space behind you during the initial parking.
Thats what i do. One more thing i would like to add, while reversing, turn the wheel same amount to the left as much you did to the right. For example if you rotated wheel half a turn while reversing to the right, rotate the wheel half a turn while reversing to the left as well.
this is exactly my problem. even when reverse parking I am not straight, i always over turn and have a bit of an angle. I just dont know when the car is straight
Wonderful video!! I didn’t realize what I was doing wrong until you explained what kind of driver I was in the beginning of the video. Now I understand how to do it.
The center of the dash as he showed can also be used to judge how close his right or left wheel is to the curb when going in at an angle, depending on which side the driver's seat is placed. So looking at the video, you can see the curb riding up the hood towards the center where his hand was. That's the turn point or pretty close to it
My instructor was telling me that I was too far, and he asked me to look at the side mirrors and set the hand brake to go outside of the vehicle to see the distance from outside
@@mrspoopy3227 I aint triggered my guy, im laughing my ass off and I don't feel attacked because i'm not a pussy who screams in terror over a fucking youtube comment, it's extremely insignificant to me. I'm only replying to the guy because he's entitled enough to try and judge people online, So I decided to judge him back, don't assume things and next time you should mind your own damn business bud
@@invi.sk98 when I started driving I thought something was wrong with me lol, I’m pretty good for my experience I’d say. Very few get it naturally, everyone goes through it tbh.
Reverse and use passenger side mirror as if you were paralel parking. That way you can see your wheel approaching and you straighten it when you're close enough.
thank you for the very useful instruction, my instructor really confused me with the "the curb line is in the middle of your view -> turn your wheel to the left". my view is quite different with his view lol
Well, you said "When I feel close enough" - that does not work with a new driver like me. We lack the 3D vision that experienced drivers have. What you need to tell us is, how do we measure when we are close to the curb, e.g. when we can see the curb line at the center of the windshield and then start turning left and straighten the car. Once the car is straightened, look through the passenger side mirror to ensure that the curb line is at the middle or end of the mirror and parallel.
Thank you so much for the fantastic videos. They are really helpful.....can you please help me on how to control the car. I failed my test because my examiner told me that I don't have good control. Pls help me on that..thanks
Firstly the reference point will depend a lot on the angle your car is towards the curb. Secondly, usually there are other cars parked along the road so in real circumstances most likely you won't have that much distance alongside the curb to straighten your car.
Hayehoot well good luck, I passed on my second try. I failed bc I did an automatic fail. And the person was really estrict and annoying. I did mine at Santa Ana, ca and I passed bc the guy was nice and he helped me a little bit. Just take it easy and good luck again.
Simple - sit upright, if you cannot see the hood of car, you are not sitting correctly...after signaling right, slow down to a crawl, get more upright in your seat & maneuver to get 2 - 3 feet away from the curb! Fool stop.
Some modern cars are now equipped with 360 degree camera showing the driver the surrounding of the vehicle on all sides at once. Hitting the curb will become a thing of the past when the 360 camera is used properly.
Studying now my instructor sometimes use terms that I totally dont have a clue because I'm a total beginner and even though I'm trying my best she's so sarcastic in criticizing how I'm so stupid bcoz I keep making beginners mistake si I'm more stressed out

in which country?
Looool. U mean u passed first and learnt this later. Interesting.
😂
Man I did fine drivers test but at home I can’t park I have to fix it til I got it right so hope this video helps me lol

Yesssssss! Very patient and kind instructor speaking in this video. Thank you.
precisely explained. I was having trouble trouble understanding the distance of the car with the curb. Your explanation clears all my confusion
You explained the curb lining up with the center of the hood WAAAY better than my drivers ed thing did. Thank you!

@@Oyasavvi Not now bcoz now i am experienced. But when i learned driving couple years ago i used to do it like that.
I'm driving instructor in Japan and I always use this reference point as well!
This was how my instructor thought about how to pull over to the side of the road. I will be watching all the other videos for good driving tips.
Right on! Thank you for sharing. :-)
this is exactly my problem. even when reverse parking I am not straight, i always over turn and have a bit of an angle. I just dont know when the car is straight

having reference point is an amazing idea! Thank you
idk why im so bad at this 😭 sigh parking & reversing is not my strong suit... it comes so easy to people
Yeah idk why i find it so hard i hate going to malls especially parking where there’s a lot of cars😅😅
Get yourself a Tesla car and it will do the parking for you
@@galy50 thats like telling someone else to do your homework. I want to learn myself and i dont need to be dependent on someone or something

Thank you so much,Passed my NRoad Test today,your videos are definitely helpful,God Bless😀
You did a great job explaining it in detail.
LMAOOOO. Not me being 20, and still struggling too park close to the curb.
I’m practicing with my dad today and I had the same problem 😢😢😢
stop, me
Lmao I have my Ls and I still hit curbs 🤣🤣
Try being 27 and learning how to drive with high driving anxiety.
22 and still struggle with it. It is what it is 🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️
I love your voice. Calm and warm ....
Long video, but explanation was really good. Thanks.
Watching this as my husband is texting me to stop hitting our rims and be more careful lol

Yeah pull over parking is a very tough skill to master! Thanks for the great tips!
These are exactly the same mistakes I made in my 2nd lesson, as a beginner I think it takes some time and thanks for this vedio and it really helps
I have my license, but I still don’t know how to park by the curb 🤦
same, i always end up really far from the curb..already have a couple scratches that's why I'm too afraid now
The idea of reference point is great ll apply next time i park curb side
I wish my instructor would have told me this instead of just telling me I was too far away.
My instructor was telling me that I was too far, and he asked me to look at the side mirrors and set the hand brake to go outside of the vehicle to see the distance from outside
U can try it, just pull over and put into Park and apply parking brake, then go outside to look at the distance from ur car to the curb
Or u can also have someone outside to show u the distance with his/her hands
Thank you so much I need all the help I can get, Shannon from Michigan
Literally what I'm dealing with now. Just got honked at lol. Gonna keep going and practicing. Thanks.

You explain very well and thoroughly!!! Thanks
thank you soo much for making the video to help those in need.
This is great and doing this definitely comes easy with experience
Great video, especially that reference point idea . I will try it!
can you make a video on how to gage distances how far you are from other cars when driving/ when parking or coming out of a parking lot.
Easiest way bro, I’d you can see their tires or bumper, you’re good
I 'll try to see if I can do after watching your video .Great tips thanks.
You are awesome at explaining things. Thank you!
Great video with real life explanations/details.
This is such a great channel! Its videos are comprehensive and thoroughly answers all the questions I have while I prepare for my road test!
I have no clue why I am here. I always get within an inch without hitting. It’s my greatest talent.
how do u do it
Awesome tips, thanks!!! This is my problem precisely
Reverse and use passenger side mirror as if you were paralel parking. That way you can see your wheel approaching and you straighten it when you're close enough.
At 5:11 it all clicked, THANK YOU!! So simple I can't believe I didn't think of doing this beforehand 👍👍👍
😂, I love your explanations cos it describes me…
I got this right my first time. When I first learned to drive
I’m 22 and I can’t curb park I always be to far away lol 😂
yea reference point is very helpful i use it too, my mystake was i turn the other way too rapidly and i get a bit far from te curb
awesome video. Clear information .Thank you so much.
Very useful information. Thank you.
Thank you so much..very well presented..vinaka..
thank you for the very useful instruction, my instructor really confused me with the "the curb line is in the middle of your view -> turn your wheel to the left". my view is quite different with his view lol
Yea I’m inconsistent with this so I always just drive past the spot and reverse into the spot using the backup cam 😂
Thank you.. Great video.. I learned a lot from your videos.
Lol this video is too accurate. Exactly what my own driving instructor has told me but I'm still worried I'll hit the curb on test day x).

So basically we just “feel” that our wheel is close enough? 😭😭 but I always feel is too close and i’m too far
Thank you this was so helpful

How awesome to learn this and having the same car :3
Thanks for the video very informative I’ll try same
