Police Car Parking

The strictness is the feature. Any contact — a kerb, a cone, another vehicle — fails the test and restarts it, which turns a routine parking game into something that demands genuine care.

Because the penalty is total, the correct approach is slow and deliberate: line the car up first, check the mirrors, then move.

Tests get progressively tighter rather than longer, so each one is a short exercise in precision.

The patrol car is larger than the bays assume, which is what makes the later tests demanding.

Camera angles can be switched mid-manoeuvre, and doing so is usually necessary.

Each test is short, so a failed attempt costs very little time.

1. Approach slowly and stop before lining up.
2. Use the camera to check both sides.
3. Reverse in small movements.
4. Finish inside the bay without touching anything.
