I failed my driving test.
I try to make excuses about it,
but I am officially terrible at driving.
I decided not to practice driving before taking the test and just to take it.
I had no clue how to parallel park,
but I watched a bunch of YouTube videos on parallel parking.
I also have no clue how to park straight in a normal parking space.
So anyways,
this lady with poofy curly black hair told me to turn on the car and roll down the window,
she then told me to turn on my blinkers,
brakes,
LOW BEAMS (I fumbled for those),
and brights.
Then she got in the car and read a long monologue.
I backed straight out of the parking space and realized I had no clue where I was going,
so I hesitated for a little bit and then turned.
Then we went down this super curvy road and the lady says "What sign did we just pass?",
I thought it was probably some obscure street sign so I said "A school zone sign? I have no clue."
(It was a speed limit sign)
Then the lady told me to turn left ahead,
at the road next to the last house on the left,
after the last chain-link fence on the left,
and the road is called Ballpark Road.
So I look up and see that there is a stop light right after the last house on the left,
so my obvious reaction is that the road is at the stoplight.
No,
there is this small obscure road right beside the house that looks like a driveway.
So I swerve into the turn lane as fast as I can and there is a car coming so I stop until they pass.
According to the lady,
I stopped in the middle of incoming traffic.
I was two inches over the line.
Automatic disqualification.
So I drove back to the DMV and the lady got out of my car and I got out and she turned around and said,
"Aren't you going to turn off your car?"
So I shamefully walked back to my car and shut it off and then I walked into the DMV.
At this point there were several people who knew I was trying to get my license and so I had to walk past them to find my dad.
I couldn't find him so I went to the car to wait for him.
It was horrible.
