Bay parking lessons in Glasgow

Bay parking is the easiest of the three test manoeuvres if you have reliable reference points. We drill both forward bay (drive in, reverse out) and reverse bay (reverse in, drive out) in the kind of car parks Glasgow (Baillieston) examiners actually use.

Recovery — straightening after a misaligned first attempt

Forward bay is easier on the way in but trickier on the way out — the reverse out is where most marks are lost, because pupils relax once 'parked' and forget to do a 6-point observation.

Anniesland routes typically push you onto Crow Road and out toward Drumchapel; Shieldhall routes use the Govan Road and Helen Street loop; Baillieston routes lean on the dual carriageway out toward Easterhouse and the M73 slip.

Who this is for: Pupils preparing for Glasgow (Baillieston) test, post-test drivers wanting tidy parking, refresher returners.
