Try making a 3 point turn on a residental street witha 17' U-Haul truck pulling a 10' trailer. I had to do that after my dad told me to go onto that street...and it turned out to be a cul-de-sac with cars lining the end. Took some doing, but I did it.

When I try, I can actually do that. My dad taught me when I was first learning how to drive. Whether I try or not usually depends on my mood.
Except when I was first learning, I've never needed to use the E-brake to help me start out with a manual tranny. This is a good thing; my pickup's E-brake's on the floor, and is operated by the same foot that operates the clutch.
And I know how to parallel-park. I've been doing it daily for 4 years (finally moving into a place with a driveway
). I can fit a 21' long pickup truck into some surprisingly tight spaces.
I also stick with the speed limit pretty religiously, even doing 25 in 25 zones. I can't afford a ticket, and I know it.
So there
:p
