    Not that I can't parallel park, I can and actually enjoy doing so, but they never actually made me do that on my license test.

    Eh, they make us do it here for our tests, if you live in major metropolitan areas.

    Not everyone will use it, and I've probably only done it properly a dozen or so times in 2 years, but I'm glad I've known how to do it for the occasions that have needed it.

    Man, how annoying despite apparently being posted I can't view my marks for this semester, they aren't even an option.

    We weren't taught how to parallel park in drivers' ed

    There "wasn't time" and it "wasn't that important"

    I worry about when I get older, because I have all sorts of weird random chest pains and all of that stuff...but I sort of shrug it off because, hey, I'm young. But I know that when I'm 45 and having pain identical to the random chest pains and stuff I get now, it'll make me very uneasy.

    I'm not saying these random chest pains are a threat to my life or anything. I'm just saying they'll stress me out when I'm older because I won't have my youth as a safety net rationale for "why this probably isn't a precursor to massive cardiac arrest"

    And if I make it to 80? Forget about it. The chest pains I get now in my 20s will probably make me shit my pants when I'm 80. I'll die from the stress.

    I have random chest pains and sometimes (I'll go without for a month, and then have it happen 20 times in one morning) my heart will skip a beat and I'll be paralysed for a second or two

    but hey I've had an ECG and basically it's just normal ol' heart palpitations and yeah, it's nothing to worry about

    but still rather scary sometimes!

    replace oh with how, and a the in front tester. If that doesn't work replace tester with a word better suited for someone administering a test. Then you have a reply on how well i can park.

    i parallel parked perfectly on my test. I learned how to the night before it

    the first test she said "you drive and park really well" and then failed me for stopping too close to stop signs :/

    the second test (at a more urban location) the guy was like "you didn't really stop for that turn but i'm gonna pass you anyway"

    in my defense, he was mumbling, had an accent, and didn't tell me to turn until i was in the intersection

    I never had driver's ed. My driving test consisted of a stop light and a few turns. My first turn she said "ok now turn left" and of course I turned right.

    I took driver's ed years before i actually went to get tested, and most of the classes i was high. Driving around in a field stoned is wonderful. I don't suggest it though.

    I'm pretty sure I'm still legal to drive both on the left and the right. Although I should find out when my Canadian license expires.

    Anyone know how long a BC license lasts?

    Well you know doing that but just hanging out in a field looking at the stars is tops, but maybe not if you're gonna be driving around it.

    I used to HATE driving. I didn't even really want to learn. I got over that though, thankfully.

    Driving by yourself is better then driving with another person a lot of the time, yeah. Unless they don't know how to drive and aren't correcting you as things go along.

    Cruise control is the best thing. Just cruise and chiiiiiill.

    Until some moron gets in front of you then dips down a good 10mph.

    It's great when you're on the interstate or maybe a highway, but anywhere else and it is pretty useless. I do lots of interstate driving, so I love it.

    Most i ever really drive in one sitting is about an hour and a half, where in i have to keep changing speeds even when i only turn twice. So it has yet to be useful for me.
