How to Parallel Park

Start position: Your car should be 30 cm away from the car, will be in front of you, in parallel. The rear wheel of your car should be next to the rear wheel of the "front" car approximately.

Turn sharp to the left.

Back in slowly

Once you back passenger door is even with the rear bumper of the "front" car, turn the steering wheel back to straight up the car.

Continue reverse straightly until the curb just disappeared from your side mirror.
--OR--
Continue reverse straightly until the rear wheel facing the curb is nearly as close as the final distance desired from it (no more than 1 foot (30 cm) ultimately being desirable) and the rear end of the car is still a few feet (about a meter) from the car behind. Use the side mirror to check the position of the panel top of you rear wheel to determine you position. A rule of thumb is that if the curb disappears in the mirror when they are pointed down, you are probably too close to the curb.

Turn to the right sharply until the car parallel to the curb.

Tips:
Be careful not to cut it too soon or too quickly, as this will result in being too far away from the curb. It is much harder to adjust your position in a space when you are too far away from the curb as opposed to being too close.

If you are parking in an area with shops, take advantage of the eventual reflection of your car in shop windows.

When backing up and lining up the cars, look in the driver's side mirror, and use the sides of the cars to know exactly how far your car has gone in towards the curb. I.e. how closely you've aligned them. That view of the sides of the cars (your car and the one behind you) offers a good easy view and check to know that you've positioned the car correctly. In particular, the side of your car above the rear wheels offers the best, most accurate view of where exactly your car is.
