ABSTRACT:
A guide to assist a driver to park in an enclosure such as a residential garage. This includes a vertically depending lever which, when contacted by the bumper of the approaching vehicle, simultaneously actuates an audible and a visible signal to apprise the driver of his progress. The audible signal is a bell which is sounded by first cocking and then releasing a spring hammer. The visible signal is a rectangular reflector supported on a shaft which is cam operated to pivot through 90.degree. so that its full face is in front of the driver to indicate proximity to the impending garage wall. The reflector's mounting post also supports a small brightly colored sphere which may be used as a reference to indicate the center of the parking lane to the driver.
