Reverse parking vs forward parking: Which is better?

When obtaining a Malaysian driver’s license, the only type of parking you are tested for is parallel parking.

Pros & Cons: Perodua Aruz – The value-for-money 7-seater SUV

When the Perodua Aruz was first launched in January 2019, some people mistakenly put it in the same category as the Proton X70.
