In order to save more parking space, most large parking lots in cities have begun to use mechanical parking spaces. Mechanized parking spaces, as the name implies, rely on mechanical force to access vehicles. Because mechanized parking spaces are still relatively novel in some cities, many car owners do not know how to park in mechanized parking spaces. The following points will explain how to park in a mechanized parking space for reference by car owners with the need.
1. Find standard parking spaces according to size
In mechanized parking lots, the size of mechanical parking spaces is usually clearly marked. When parking, car owners should first choose a standard parking space based on the size of their vehicle. This operation is recommended to be completed before entering the parking lot, otherwise the vehicle staying in the parking lot for too long will cause serious traffic congestion.
2. When reversing, remember to leave a proper distance
When reversing, maintain a vertical distance of the vehicle body to the parking space, and pay attention to turning corners. This is because mechanized parking lots are usually built with steel structure. If the appropriate spacing is not left, unexpected situations may directly result in vehicle scratches and unnecessary economic losses for the car owner. When reversing, do not rush to reverse at once, and try to reverse several times while paying attention to safety.
3. The vehicle needs to pass the limit strip
Another key point for parking in a mechanical parking lot is that the vehicle must pass the limit strip. The limit strip is a mark to ensure the safe placement of the vehicle, but because the limit strip has a certain slope, it needs to be accelerated to pass. However, remember to control the throttle when pressing the gas pedal, otherwise it may cause a serious accident.
There are relevant points for parking in mechanized parking spaces, from finding parking spaces to subsequent reversing and stability. Drivers must not be nervous when parking in a mechanized parking lot. As long as the size of the vehicle is determined first, they can use the traditional method of finding parking spaces to find a parking space, and leave a certain distance when reversing to avoid collisions.
