Alley docking (to the left)

Alley Docking to the left.

Alley docking forms part of the yard test and
is a reverse parking action done by the driver from the starting point
(allocated block). The driver will be required to reverse the vehicle into an
allocated parking around poles and stopping at the end. The driver must NOT hit
or touch any poles or obstacles including the curb as this will result in
immediate failure and the test will be stopped immediately. This action must be
completed from both the left and the right side, given that the instructor can
choose the side from which you will start. Alley docking deduction points are
