During the Georgia DDS road skills test, which curb clearance meets the currently stated parallel-parking requirement?
Correct answer: The car is less than 18 inches from the curb.
Why
DDS currently describes a passing parallel-parking position as less than 18 inches from the curb. Center the car in the space without touching another vehicle or mounting the curb. The parent–teen guide recommends a practical wheel position 6 to 12 inches from the curb. These are parking skill targets, not permission to ignore local parking controls.
