HEHEHEH. no pun intended pero im above avergae when it comes to parallel parking. Mas hirap ako sa perpendicular parking lalo na kung ang unang papasok ung unahan. heheheh

[jhnkvn]

Depends on the parking itself. But I do know when to give up kung di ako makapark in less than 5minutes, out na.

Parking a Jazz? Plenty easy.
Parking a Sonata? Not bad.
Parking a Level 6 BP Expedition with index-finger thick glass? "Oh god, what did I do to deserve this ".

Parallel parking sa mall at sa bahay, average.

Parallel parking sa UST (Espanya side) madugo para sa akin..

[bobzy]

may technique na tinuturo dito sa ME regarding this kind of parking. if my memory serves me right, if you are driving a sedan itapat mo yun first part ng rear window mo sa edge ng car na naka park tapos todo kabig papasok then before the gutter todo bawi...pasok na! kasi sa driving exams pag di mo naipasok ng 1 try sa parking you failed! buti na lang puro convert lang ako ng DL

di ko tinapos panoorin yung video....hirap na hirap kalooban ko hahaha!

Imagine parking a Ford Raptor or a Toyota Tundra...

madugo nga yung nasa espana side(sa loob ng ust) sobrang narrow yung road sa middle at sobrang liit ng slots
kailangan sagad ka sa sidewalk para hindi ka humaharang sa kalye
pag mahaba yung kotse na dala mo, delikado na pwede mong tamaan yung kotse sa kabilang side habang pumapasok ka paatras

[xwangbu]

buti di umalis yung nasa likod na tsikot pagka-park nya. :D

[R.Paul]

pano pa ung Honda Pilot. IMO, pinakamahirap na kotse na pinark ko sa buhay ko

[greatauror28]

May technique jan, regardless pa gaano kalaki sasakyan mo.
It's three strokes lang:

First is yung pag urong mo ng slanting papunta sa slot mo
Second yung pagurong mo ng derecho sa slot mo.
Third is yung pag forward mo na para equal ang clearance mo sa harap at likod.

I should know kasi kasama yan sa Full Class 5 driving test na ni-take ko kelan lang.

Sa Pinas, gamit ko pang parallel-park?

Yep, ..that was the technique I used sa Toyota Cressida na pang test drive sa KSA way back in early 90's. Pasok one shot. Kapag sumablay ka at nilagare mo ang pagcorrect ng parking, repeat try ka sa pagkuha mo ng DL's. I also tried it sa ibang cars and its almost perfect. Kahit sa SUV..konting adjust lang. Park alongside sa nsa gilid mo na car about 2ft then, when that small triangle sa back window mo ay in line sa edge of your reference car full turn right, tapos kapag almost naka 45deg ka na full turn left naman tapos abante mo and ituwid ang goma..I've shared this technique to a lot of my friends...hindi sila maniwala until they themselves tried it, sadly hindi pa rin tlaga makuha ni misis ang style na to...parking wlang pake pa rin ang alam hehehe.

[Retz]

Mas nauna ko matutunan parallel parking keysa paatras. Sa school kasi namin parallel parking. I would go to school early just as so I have more than enough space and wouldn't need to park parallel. It was my friend who taught me how to parallel. She tried to park my car but had a hard time kasi hindi power steering So she taught me how to do it, front half ng car ko pantay ko rear half ng car.

[shadow]

I think I'm good...kahit exacto basta meron mag alalay I can probably park it

[Retz]

kailangan 3-5 in from the gutter pag nag parallel park.

[d'flash]

akala ko collection ng vids yun ng parallel parking, yun pala isang car lang yun, ang tagal nun, liit pa ng auto niya,

average ako sa parallel parking,

[kenzie]

I say 7-10 on a good day ;)

[Retz]

kailangan sa parallel parking, know when to turn your steering wheel fully left and then right (vice versa) para shoot.
