Parallel Parking for returning drivers in Northolt

How we teach parallel parking

Keep the car slow enough to observe all around and pause whenever another road user may be affected. For returning drivers, the priority is restoring observation, control and confident decision-making.

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