Gain Parking and Reversing Confidence with Parking Sensors

 Parking or reversing can lead to a lot of hesitation, especially for new drivers. To encourage more confidence in a person learning to drive or just for yourself you can get parking sensors. There are a variety of parking aids on the market. You have Steel Mate and LaserLine which require adaptation to your bumper. Then you have the Parking Dynamics PD1. The PD1 doesn’t require any changes to your bumper. In fact it adheres to the back of the bumper, so you don’t even have an unsightly sensor on your car.

The PD1 is an electromagnetic parking sensor that works with the CAN bus wiring system. The wiring system transmits a signal into your car to tell you which zone you are in when parking or reversing. The reverse sensor has three zones for closeness and the front parking sensor has two zones. The zones are the frequency in which you will hear a beep sound. As you get close to an object the sound becomes more frequent until it is a steady pulse.
Now that you know how the PD1 electromagnetic parking sensor works we can look at why it offers driver’s confidence. Parking and reversing can be difficult with the blind spots in a vehicle. You may look around and not see another car or pedestrian walking, yet they are there. To help you reduce the frequency of incidents while parking or reversing you can purchase parking sensors. The parking sensors are a warning system to help you recognise when there are something there you can’t see.
You no longer have to worry about a blind spot. You also don’t have to worry about looking in one direction then the other and still having something appear a few seconds later. Other driver’s do not always adhere to the speed limits in parking lots, which means they can appear instantly even though you have already checked that location. Be wise and use the PD1 parking sensors to limit your incidents in parking lots.

Customer Testimonials

I can't believe the ease by which the parking sensor was fitted and we just love the discrete 'hidden' sensor design. What a difference the PD1 makes to both mine and my wife's parking and reversing.

The audible alert keeps our attention to a maximum level and really helps with tight parking spaces.
