She also told me I couldn't talk, and I let out an "OH!" at one point when a car was going to hit us (not JP's fault) and she turned around to me and said "You're not allowed to instruct him!" She was not the nicest person we've ever met :( He wants to test in a different city next time and hopefully get a nicer examiner!Colleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11451797365712728579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5937303870758455964.post-70784425072738573672019-09-20T11:12:15.386-04:002019-09-20T11:12:15.386-04:00My daughter just got her drivers license - but in ...My daughter just got her drivers license - but in the glorious state of Illinois one doesn't have to parallel park to pass! Most of the state has nice parking lots or wide roads to park on - so parallel parking isn't necessary. I don't think I could teach anyone to parallel park - I'm ready for the car to do that automatically for me. (When I tested in my youth, I put the car up on the curb a little but still passed. I think the examiner just wanted to go home and passed me out of pity.) You had to sit in the back seat? Here it's only the examiner and the student. I would never have survived the stress of sitting while she tested.<br />I hope he gets it on the next try! mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12388057081854458639noreply@blogger.com
