Parallel parking, one level at a time.
A free 3D simulator just for parallel parking. Learn the four moves with a coach, then take them to tight gaps, hills, road-test cones and the far side of a one-way street.
10 ways to parallel park
Start with an empty space behind you and finish with no hints at all. Each level earns up to three stars: park it, touch nothing, and do it without extra corrections.
A coach that watches what you do
Parky tells you one thing at a time — pull up, full lock, straighten, swing in — and moves on only when the car is actually there. Live readouts show your angle and distance to the curb, so you learn what “about 45°” and “3 feet out” really look like.
Try level 1Every parallel park you will meet
Roomy gaps and everyday city gaps. Four cones like the road test. A hill where the car rolls on its own and you have to turn your wheels the right way before you leave it. The far curb of a one-way street. A bigger SUV. Pulling out of a tight spot. And a gap so short you have to shuffle in.

Switch between a chase camera, a top-down view and the driver's seat with working side mirrors and a reversing camera. Learn the moves from above, then do them from behind the wheel where you only have your mirrors.

Parking on the right in a typical car. Read the full step-by-step guide for the reference points and why they work.
Pull up alongside
Stop about 3 ft (1 m) out from the car in front of the space, rear wheels level with its rear bumper.
Full lock to 45°
In reverse, turn the wheel all the way toward the curb and creep back until you are at about 45°.
Straighten and back in
Wheel straight, keep reversing until your rear corner is about 3 ft from the curb.
Full lock the other way
Turn all the way away from the curb so the front swings in. Straighten, center, park.
Questions
Is the parallel parking simulator free?
Yes. All 10 levels run free in your browser — no download, no sign-up. Your stars are saved in this browser only.
Does it work on a phone?
Yes. Drag the steering wheel, hold the Gas and Brake pedals and tap P, R or D. It is easiest in landscape. On a computer you can use W A S D, R to switch between Drive and Reverse, and P to park.
How much space do you need to parallel park?
While you are learning, look for a gap about 1.5 times your car's length. With practice you can get into less, but below roughly 1.4 car lengths you will need back-and-forth corrections — that is what the tight-space level teaches.
How close to the curb should I be?
Many road tests accept up to 18 inches (45 cm); some use 12 inches (30 cm). Check your local driver handbook. In the simulator you pass within 18 inches, and the result shows how close you got.
I drive on the left. Does it work for the UK or Australia?
Yes. Choose “Traffic drives on the left” before you start a level. The street, the car (right-hand drive) and every coach instruction flip to match.
Can a simulator replace real practice?
No. It is good for learning the sequence and the reference points, and you can repeat a mistake a hundred times for free. You still need practice in a real car with a qualified instructor or supervising driver, and real observation checks.
