Roundabout types
Type 1
Parallel parking
Parallel parking is a sequence of set-up position, then a steady reverse controlled entirely by observation - the reference points only work if the set-up position was right to begin with.
Open type
Type 2
Bay parking
Bay parking succeeds or fails at the set-up position, before you have even started turning - the space you give yourself decides how much steering correction you will need inside the bay.
