Driving

Introduction

Driving style is defined by character, emotional tendencies, attitudes toward others, self-esteem. People's behaviour on the road is a prototype of an individual life that is the life behind the wheel.

Parallel parking is refered as parking the car nbetween two vehicles. People park their cars in thje gap since the car is more manoeuvrable while driving in reverseof what people do while moving forward. People need to practice and with practice they can be able to reverse parallel park in a space of 1.5 times more than their vehicle's length. On the other hand, People will not be as good in their driving test. In the busy road of today, reverse pralell parking since with all reversing manoeuvres, is probably a dangerous manoeuvres and it should be done carefully (Green, 2008).

Parallel Parking

In addition to the above mentioned skills, it is also vital to understand the importance of parking as part of driving subject. Parallel parking, in this regard, can be defined as a type of driving maneuvers and one of the hardest skills that one has to learn (DSA, 2012).

driving habits (when and where the person drives);

differences observed in the conduct;

Examples of reckless or abnormal driving;

tickets for violations of traffic laws (driving too slowly or quickly, make turns prohibited, do not meet the stops);

accidents, small skirmishes or near misses;

examples where the person has lost his way;
