Can you reverse park?

I don’t think I am talking about the same reverse parking as you. This is what I never need to do:

I always reverse into a car parks spaces and angle parks too.

I can count on one hand how many times I have reversed parallel parked.

That was my point too

That’s an easy one though, the space is quite a bit bigger than the car.

You are required to leave 1 metre between vehicles when parallel parking, it is the law.

Can you reverse park?

I couldn’t do that, in fact it would be illegal in NSW, you are supposed to leave 1 metre between vehicles. [image] When I was visiting the UK an old friend of mine did something similar when parking outside her house. NSW Police use that rule to disrupt motor cycle gangs by booking them for being too close to another vehicle (ie each other)

We don’t have such a law here, except for the roads with white/blue lines indicating individual parking spaces, where you should park exactly within the lines.
A law like that would never work here, I’m sure you’ve heard about our “wild parking”, especially Naples and Rome. I’m not like that, I promise , I’m very British when it comes to parking, always respecting the rules.
