It varies somewhat depending on how much of your car hangs out in back of the wheels, but basically


1. Pull up next to the parking space to judge that your car will fit. and how much is left over.


2. Pull forward until the rear bumpers of your car and the car in front of the space are aligned and your car is about 2 feet from the other car.


3. While backing, turn the steering wheel smoothly and fairly quickly so that when the rear wheel of your car is in the line of the rear bumper of the other, you are at about 30 degrees to the line of the street.


4. Straighten out the wheels so the car goes straight back toward the curb.


5. When the front of the car is clear of the bumper line, turn the wheel sharply to bring your car's front end across the back of the car in front while moving back a small distance.


6. Straighten the car and center it between the two cars, getting closer to the curb if need be.


Note the following: actually the width of the car in front and of your car are important and so the distance from the curb is more of a factor than the distance from the car (since half the width of your car plus half the width of that car plus the space between them fits into the turning radius of your car.)


The most common errors are turning to too great an angle and thus hitting the curb with the rear wheels; almost hitting the car in front by cutting back too soon, almost hitting the car behind by too shallow an angle or cutting too soon. Solving all of these is a matter of judgement of the starting distance and the angle.
don't worry about it do the best you can in my state is is only 4 points as long as you dont hit the curb ..if you hit the curb here you fail so i backed up 4 foot and told them i was done...so not to hit curb
