Remember that there are local driving customs you should obey.

1) Make sure you go slower than the speed limit in the passing lane.
2) Run through lights as they turn red.
3) Slow to a complete stop when turning on really busy streets, causing the driver behind you to slam on his or her brakes.
4) Don't bother with those turn signals, no one hardly uses them.

I took the test in Moriarty. Guess that doesn't say much. I might be an awful driver and not know it.

I can't imagine parallel parking will not be on the test. It is actually a very valuable skill downtown, where you will need to quickly back into spots before the tourists nab them in the summer.

I took the road test in ABQ and passed.

But that was 38 years ago.
