I think the reason you teach so well is that you acknowledge when things are difficult but make it seem realistic that you can overcome the difficulty by improving. I’ve had experiences of instructors acting like everything should be self explanatory and intuitive. This is a breath of fresh air! Thank you!

My driving instructor had a foolproof method for parallel parking - nearly 30 years ago now - its simplicity blew my mind at the time and I’ve never forgotten it. Your video reminds me of that old lesson so much. Pull up parallel to the front car, making sure the back of both cars are perfectly aligned. Turn the wheel and reverse until your near-side wing mirror passes the back of the other car. The second your wing mirror passes, you turn your wheel fully in the other direction. You’ll end up nicely aligned to the kerb. Those two little tips: aligning the backs of the cars and then waiting for the wing mirror to pass, have served me well since then. Parallel parking is absolutely my favourite manoeuvre. Thank you so much for your wonderful videos, I always love them and learn so much.

My driving test is tomorrow. And I’m so nervous. When I drive I’m very confident but I’m getting really nervous now. And so I’m watching loads of videos to hopefully lower my nerves. EDIT: I PASSED WITH ONLY TWO MINORS!!!

I passed my test 9 years ago, and only just got my first car today!! So glad I watched this video before getting into the car today - just nailed my first parallel park in 9 years, so thank you for making this video!

Just a quick one to Thank you, Richard. I passed my UK test last week. I got the parallel park on my test and used your method with 'dry steering' and didn't get even a minor for it. I passed by watching your videos over and over 😂 and over. Plus private driving lessons. So thank you again so much.

I've watched one hundred videos but this one is the ONLY one helped me understand and find a reference point that is easy to spot. THANK YOU so much. Keep up the great job :)

Where have you been all my life? you are just brilliant. Learnt more in 5 minute from watching your video than 2 months of my driving lol. Thank you

I have my first driving test this morning at 9:12am, I’m feeling really nervous but I’m so grateful to you and your videos. You communicate so clearly and the information sticks so much better than when I’m with my own instructor!

Your explanation and demonstration along with illustration needed for reverse parallet parking are really comprehensive and crystal clear. Great job and I found your lesson extremely useful for me and whoever watch yours.

I’m binge watching your videos as I have my first driving lesson on Friday.... your videos seem to help even though I have no clue what I’m doing

Parallel parking is my biggest concern with driving and you made it so easy to understand. Hopefully I should get it right next time with all your helpful tips. Thank you ever so much.

Finally passed my test today (2nd time round like Jenson Button) without any minors, and I'd say these videos have been a HUGE help!

Richard, you are a genius driving instructor! Thank you for your videos. 😊

Passed my driving test this morning! Came back to say a big thank you for this video and your video on roundabouts!!!!! It really helped clarify things!!!! THANK YOU

I had been been watching your videos before my test. Your videos especially this one are really helpful! Before watching your videos I sucked at parallel parking cause I didn't know what reference points I could look to. Your explanation is really clear! I passed my test today with a pretty good parallel parking. So thank you very much!
