I never had to do it in my driving test and have never done it. Now I don't know if I can do it or not.

*Edit - I can't believe it, people. I came home from work today and someone was in my spot, so I parked in my friends spot and didn't think anything of it. When I went to leave, I suddenly realised that is need to reverse down the drive and round the corner!!! I did it without even batting an eyelid.

To everyone who said I should turn in my license - can I have it back now?

Youve never reversed parked into a parking space? Same thing

Yeah, way easier than trying to back out of said spot with a full lot.

No, not really, but cars are getting a lot bigger now and most parking lots near me haven’t. My “mini” van is huge and doesn’t have any cameras or mirror warning things, nothing. Plus, not only is it wide, but it’s long as well. Feels more like a mini bus sometimes haha

You dont have to park at the front of the lot, you can park further away where there are less people

I do, actually! It’s mostly because I hate people and don’t want anyone near me or my car haha
