OH HELL NO. As someone who does know how to parallel park and lives in the midwest, I love not having to compete with all these other losers.

Hahaha, took the driving test in Colorado last February and they only made me take a few turns and stop at signs. I didn’t have to reverse park, merge into a major road, or parallel park. Thank god my parents learned in the UK so they taught me far more than necessary!

That is frankly, rediculous. I didn’t have to do it on my test, but I learned between two warehouse supports in my dad’s crew cab F250 since the summer before getting my permit. Came in good use when on the day of getting my permit, my dad and I went into Manhattan for a meeting he had, and he got out and told me “circle the block until you find a parking spot, and don’t wreck it.”

When I did my drivers test in VA during drivers ed, we were never tested on parallel parking. I learned by being on a busy street and having to get it right the first time.

Fuck that shit, I did my driving test in a 3/4 ton Chevy truck and I parallel parked that motherfucker like a boss.

Hell, I used to DD a ‘76 Olds Delta 88 that didn’t come with a passenger’s side mirror from the factory and I’d parallel park that land barge.

Reminds me of a town meeting my brother attended. He said a lady there was full on screaming at the committee that a traffic circle be removed because her 16 year old son didn’t know how to navigate it. Said circle has been there at least as long as there has been pavement.

When I took my Maryland driving test, the tester guy offered to get out of the car and guide me into the parallel space. It was like 25 feet long and in a closed off test course. My confident car guy 16 year old self was having none of that “do you need some help parallel parking” shit.

I once got LAID because she was impressed that I threw my arm over the back of her seat and parked her SVX in one go. Who says it’s not an important skill?

Come on what’s next? No need for a licence at all? Why not have a free-for-all and cut out the paperwork!
