There's a shock.
I passed mine. But I took it in a town south of nowheresville (where my college was located) and it was easy. For parallel parking, they had cones set up on the street fifteen feet away from each other (just for the test -- and it was like a mile away from the dmv). So I back in and pull forward and am 1 inch from the curb. Perfect.
The guy looks at me and says, "You're from New York aren't you?"
I says, "Yeah. Why?"
He says, "I'm not going to mark you down for this, but we usually don't park that close to the curb here in the [not-so-cotu]."
Since it was clear I was going to pass, I didn't ask, "What difference could parking
closer to the curb possibly make, jackass?"
