This is one of the community's favorite spots to practice drifting. There are a lot of tiny spots to throw the car around while drifting at the docks in GTA Online. Avoiding security is important as hitting them while drifting will cause players to gain a wanted star. Taking the car between the crates and machinery is always fun and challenging, making this a brilliant spot to practice.


1) The Pier

The main reason the pier tops the list is because of the terrain. The wooden surface is one of the slipperiest in the game, making the pier a great spot to learn control over a car's drift. The pier is also a very tiny spot where players can really learn how to make those small gaps while taking drifts around stalls and cars.
