Just like to say fab site...after spending a few weeks searching for a site that was informative and helpful, this site is a blessing. (Man! there's a huge amount of cr*p out there on t'interweb!!) I'm moving out to Ventura County, CA in Oct this year - Hurrah! Only thing i'm not looking forward to is taking my driving test, should be easy peasy though right? straight roads, no roundabouts (turnabouts) you can turn right on red lights - does anyone know if you have to take a written test too?
Many thanks![Stick Out Tongue](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/tongue.gif)

Remember not all red lights let you turn right.
If your worried about the parallel parking ,just go to an empty car park and practice in a corner.
Good luck with the move.

Too funny that you said that. Years ago I had to wait in a line outside Harrods for my purse to be searched before I could go into the store. A woman on the street did just as you described. First hit the car in front of her, then behind her, then in front of her again before putting the car into park and getting out. It kept us entertained.
