Parallel Parking for first-time test candidates in Greenford

How we teach parallel parking

Keep the car slow enough to observe all around and pause whenever another road user may be affected. For first-time test candidates, the priority is being genuinely ready to drive independently rather than memorising a route.

• Choose a suitable space and starting position
• Coordinate steering with slow control
• Finish reasonably close and parallel to the kerb
