How do you angle parking?

1. Drive slowly past the open space you want to park in. Make sure there is enough space for your car and that you will not be blocking any driveways or crosswalks.

2. Put your car into reverse and slowly back up until your rear wheels are about 1-2 feet (30-60 cm) from the curb.

3. Turn your steering wheel all the way to the right (or left, depending on which side of the street you are parking on).

4. Slowly back up until your car is at a 45-degree angle to the curb.

5. Put your car into park and turn off the engine.

6. Get out of your car and make sure that your car is parked safely and not blocking any traffic.

Here are some tips for angle parking:

- Practice makes perfect! If you are not used to angle parking, it is a good idea to practice in a parking lot before you try it on the street.

- Be aware of your surroundings. Make sure you are not blocking any driveways or crosswalks, and that there is enough space for your car.

- Go slowly. Don't rush when you are angle parking. It is important to take your time and make sure you do it correctly.
