The 'Drag Race' host shared a helpful tip on TikTok for lining up your car when parallel parking—and fans are totally into it.

Isn't parallel parking a drag?

Not anymore!


Drag queen icon RuPaul shared with us the road wisdom we never knew we needed when he posted a TikTok video demonstrating how to properly parallel park.

Driving school was in session when RuPaul said the secret to successfully parking on a side street in the space between two parked vehicles (car A in the front & car B in the back) was using your passenger side door—or PSD—as a guide.

"Your PSD has a front seam and a back seam," said the runway expert while wearing a white oxford shirt, sunglasses, and a wide-brim sunhat throwing the right amount of shade.

The three-time recipient of the GLAAD Media Awards suggested drivers should pull their car alongside car A about 12 inches apart. Next, while operating their vehicle in reverse, he said it was safe to turn the wheel toward the space (the driver's right side) once the back seam of their PSD was aligned with car A's rear bumper.

He continued:

"Once the front seam of your PSD is aligned with the rear bumper of car A, cut your wheel in the opposite direction, and voila."

"Yaay!" he exclaimed with both hands in the air after completing the effortless maneuver, adding, "You have been promoted."

RuPaul telling the internet they've been promoted was the affirmation they were thrilled to receive.
