Due to dense buildings and a large number of cars, parking in a metropolis becomes a real headache, not only for novice car enthusiasts, but also for their more experienced comrades.
Instructions
Step 1
In order to avoid unnecessary hassle, leave early so that you have enough time to find a suitable place, because parking in a metropolis can be time consuming. By leaving early during rush hour, you will also avoid traffic jams and arrive at your destination earlier than the main stream of motorists, which will increase the chances of finding a free parking space.
Step 2
When parking a car, think not only about making it closer for you to walk, but also about putting the car in the safest place where it will not be touched by other motorists, and where it will be reliably protected from burglars. The ideal place is the parking area of large shops and business centers - it is quite spacious here, and the territory is usually under video surveillance. The main thing is not to accidentally stand in a place for disabled people or in the zone of action of the sign "Stopping is prohibited", otherwise you can get a rather large fine or even lose your car if during your absence they manage to take it away in a tow truck to the parking lot.
Step 3
In the central districts of large metropolitan areas, paid parking has now begun to operate, where there are usually always free spaces. Leaving your car here is convenient and safe, but you will have to pay for such comfort. The amount depends on the number of hours for which you leave the car there.
Step 4
If there is no special parking nearby, you can leave your car at the edge of the carriageway, where it is not prohibited by special road signs. In this case, you will have to remember an exercise from a driving school called parallel parking. Of course, not everyone has mastered it perfectly, but with regular practice, the skill comes to automatism. Parktronic will be a good assistant in parallel parking. When leaving your car on the road, you need to remember about the rules: for example, you cannot park your car at a pedestrian crossing or a public transport stop. For such violations, the traffic police have every right to send the vehicle to the impound.
Step 5
In fact, it is not so difficult to park in the city, the main thing is to stock up on time, patience and be extremely attentive, try to think not only for yourself, but also for other road users, without inconveniencing them.
