Can you parallel park?

Can you do a clean parallel park or do you drive round and round until an easier paking slot becomes open?

Can you correlate that with the way you run your personal life?

I can parallel park no problem.

I'm not sure how I can relate it to my personal life though :?

I can paralell park but choose not to. I do only if i have no other choice. I don't know how that would have to do with the way i run my life though.

I can as long as the cars in front and back don't mind dings and the peeps on the sidewalk ignore my rear tire on the curb

seriously= I'm the chica that takes up like 2 car lengths to park so I have rm to get in and out- I'm AWFUL

Actually failed my driving test the 1st time b/c of it

It's a psychological question. The first thought and reaction you apply to when you have to parallel park....is often how you approach the harder decisions in life.

I don't parallel park at all. I drive round and round looking for an easier spot. It's the same way I handle my life problems or tasks.

In Florida to pass the drivesrs test you don't have to know how so I never learned.

Duke · 02-08-2005, 10:06 PM

Whoa, that seems a little off. I had to experience pretty much all of what was in the handbook (except steering during a skid) to pass my test.

If Florida had stricter license regulations....... most of the half blind snowbirds wouldn't be able to drive in their cadillacs! LMAO!

I think the road test should be pretty stringent and incorporate virtually every element in the drivers handbook. It's no wonder there seems to be a lot of bad drivers out there.

you have to know how to paralel park to get your drivers licence here in canada. That's a given. you need to know everything.

I went for my beginners a month before my 18th birthday and got my licence on my 18th birthday. can't do that now. now they make people keep their beginners for a full year before they can take the road test.

In the US.....it varies somewhat from state to state as to the age limit and requirements. Even from city to city.....how people interpret the law is different. In most cities....a yellow light means slow down....here in Jacksonville....it means speed up like a SOB and try to force your way thru the light!
