How to Park
Driving school, minus the real bumper.
Seventeen lessons, from a straight stop to a Tuesday in Paris, where nobody parks inside the lines. Your instructor sits in the passenger seat the whole way.

- Tuesday in Paris
In Paris the other cars park wherever they like. One is abandoned in the aisle with its hazards on, one takes up two bays, and a delivery van waits double parked across from your gap.
The car
It drives like a real automatic. Lift off the brake and it creeps. The steering takes a moment to wind on, and you stop before you change gear.
On phones and tablets
The bottom of the screen becomes a dashboard. You turn the steering wheel with your finger, pick P, R, N or D on the gear selector and press the brake and gas pedals. In reverse the backup camera shows on the centre screen. A button on the dashboard mutes the parking sensor beeps and keeps the bars. If you prefer the old thumb controls, choose classic in the settings.
Help
- Yellow markers show where to turn and where to straighten.
- A ghost car shows the reference drive.
- Park square in the lines for three stars. Parked crooked? Hold still for 3 seconds and it counts, for two stars at most.
- Parked? Next lesson takes you straight on. Pause stops the clock.
- Watch from above, close up, from a drone or from the driver's seat with a mirror. Reversing? Turn on the backup camera.
The instructor
He is hard to impress and he never forgets. Hit the same car twice and you will hear about it. He has a name for every car in Paris, Tiny Tina included. His lines appear word by word and stay on screen until you have read them.
