How to 90 Degree Park Large SUVs
Parking a large SUV at a 90-degree angle can be challenging, but with some practice and following these steps, you can do it:
1. Find a parking spot: Look for a parking space that is large enough to accommodate your SUV comfortably. Avoid narrow spots or spaces that are too close to other cars.
2. Prepare the SUV: Adjust the mirrors and seat to ensure that you have a clear view of the surroundings. If your SUV has a rearview camera, make sure it is working correctly.
3. Position the SUV: Position your SUV parallel to the parking space, keeping a safe distance from the car parked on your right side.
4. Begin the turn: Begin to turn the steering wheel to the right and move slowly towards the parking space. As you turn, keep an eye on the rearview camera or your mirrors to ensure that you do not hit any obstacles or other cars.
5. Straighten the wheels: Once the front of your SUV is in the parking space, straighten the wheels by turning the steering wheel to the left.
6. Continue parking: Move your SUV slowly forward until you are in the center of the parking space. Stop the car and engage the parking brake.
7. Check your positioning: Check that your SUV is centered in the parking space and that there is enough space between your car and the cars parked on either side.
8. Adjust if necessary: If you are not centered in the parking space, slowly back up and reposition the SUV until it is in the correct position.
9. Exit the SUV: Turn off the engine, remove the keys, and exit the SUV, ensuring that you lock the doors.
Remember to always be cautious while parking, and practice makes perfect.
