How do you estimate how far into the garage you can drive without bumping your car?

Posted by admin
Hysteria asked:


I tend to always leave my car sticking out of my doorless garage. Every morning the pigeons have emptied their bowels onto the spare wheel on the back of my 4 wheel drive car. Yuck! They sit just above the garage entrance and fire away. I have space to drive further in, but always nervous I will damage the front of the car. Any tricks to be able to do it confidently without getting in and out of the car to check how much further to drive in?

      In addition to the old “tennis ball on a string” gambit, you could try putting a mark on the wall that lines up with your external mirror, invest in a spring-loaded warning sign (I’ve seen them in Harriet Carter’s little catalog). You might also invest in a pair of tire bump stops, or even get a laser guided unit which costs less than twenty-two dollars available at source listed below. Good luck!

      It’s simple. Look at the crease ahead of you between the floor and the garage wall out of the driver’s window (I’m assuming your vertical to the wall). Right when you see the crease appear completely under the driver’s side mirror, you stop. Same goes with parking at a McDonald’s, a mall’s, or a T-Mobile’s parking lot.
