You can try sticking 2 small blind spot mirrors ($6 or so) on the upper corner of the side mirror, it helps quite a bit for parking...
BTW, when you are making turns, make sure you have remained enough room for the front, this way will give you more room for turning.作者: elan7e 時間: 2011-12-27 22:10
I won't put water...if it's too cold, could turn ice...if it's in summer time, the bottle water may not be good...
In my trunk there's always umbrella, snow shovel, a big jacket (in case there's minor accident and you are waiting for the tow truck, could be an hour or more before it comes).
This one is for myself only...those recycle bag in case I shop in T&T... LOL作者: 嘉嘉 時間: 2011-12-28 01:54
personally I always have a snow brush (the one with a plastic blade to help scraping frosting windows and windshield), a map (as a backup in case phone dies...), my insurance, and a pen
the pen came in very handy last time when I was in a car accident作者: fibbi 時間: 2011-12-28 02:11
Yeah, map is important...paper and pen too...
well...insurance is a must-have...作者: ACC-HE 時間: 2011-12-28 11:12
Go to Auto-X, take Velocity-1, ask Ah Lik to bring you there.
Your car won't be damaged by running into soft plastic cones, but you'll get how close you are to the wall at CM afterwards... keke.作者: Nam 時間: 2011-12-28 11:57
通常啲窄嘅位,或泊嘅我都會用味入,克服個恐懼後,其實用尾入泊車易好多,吓吓驚整花架車實學唔到,仲有我唔知仲有幾多就到的話,我通想會靠睇燈, 咁越近牆,盞燈就越光架啦!作者: Nam 時間: 2011-12-28 12:04

If you to to trust anyone, it would have to be spoonek4 =D
The key is practice, practice, and practice!
Try practicing in all possible difficult situations, such as parallel and angle parking, front and back in (including on the left hand side of the street for some one way roads). Try to find some less busy street parking with some buildings/shops that have big windows/glasses facing the street you're going to park, so you can check on the reflections for how accurate you're moving back and forth. Also look for some "reference points" to memorize the space you need to leave, for example, when you can see the top of the license plate of the car in front of you is lining up with the edge the windshield and dashboard, it's about 2 ft apart, so you can estimate how closest you can get before crashing into it. Similar method to practice on side mirrors and backing up.作者: spoonek4 時間: 2012-1-8 17:39

仲有 angle parking 點樣準確入到個位,有無reference point 可以參考。作者: B2L2 時間: 2012-1-17 15:54
If a car is going to hit me, first I will horn, second I will check my mirror to see whether I could move.
Once I was in my friends car when the truck in front slip backward, he just screamed inside the car without doing anything. Finally the truck hit us and then drove away quickly. Afterward, we all asked him why he screams instead of hitting the horn. The truck wouldn't able to hear him screaming at all.
Next time at Crystal, don't follow the car in front closely onto the slope. I always left the space for the opposite car to crossover and never stop at that spot.作者: B2L2 時間: 2012-1-17 15:57
About reference point, you will have to find that yourself. Everyone and every car is different. You could use objects in your car as reference, and you could also use the car parked next to your spot as reference too.作者: amgolfer 時間: 2012-1-18 11:53
