When I took my driving test WAY back in 1976, I had to turn left from a 2 lane road into a 4 lane road (traffic light controlled). The instructor deducted 5 points because I turned directly into the right lane. He said the law was for me to turn into the closest (left) lane. I don't know if that law has changed over the years or not, but it's one I always remember since he told me I was wrong.

Hell, that was so long ago we had to parallel park (instead of the cones).

We go a lot of places where street parking is the only real option. Watching people (attempt to) parallel park is hilarious. We recently watched a dude in a Jeep (4 door Wrangler) spend 2+ minutes trying to get into a spot, only to end up parking with one tire completely on the sidewalk.

I didn't notice. But probably.
