Vans are usually much longer than passenger cars, which is why you need watch out for tight turns. Ask someone to assist you when reversing. It is much easier to reverse with someone outside the car who keeps track so you don't run into anything, who can show how far you have left behind the car, etc. Roll down the windows and turn off the radio when reversing.
