Parallel Parking should no longer be a requirement to achieve a driver's license in MICHIGAN. No one hardly uses parallel parking anymore in Michigan, why require something no one uses? Parallel Parking is a choice, so it should be a choice when aquiring a driver's license. Please sign this petition if you agree Parallel Parking requirement should be removed, get people back on the roads.

The feedback regarding this requirement has been insightful and confirms that many drivers feel this specific maneuver is outdated. I am currently compiling these experiences to present them to the relevant licensing authorities. Your participation provides the necessary context to demonstrate that this change has significant public support.

There is no plausible reason to have this section on the test. Driving is a matter on how well drivers on the road, not how well they can parallel park. In most rural locations, teens will never even have to parallel park, and this just causes an impediment to student drivers who are trying to obtain their license.
