Strike Two

Well, I was ready today, only slightly nervous. I had a good ride at the DMV. That is till I got approximately 100 yds from parking the truck. The DMV Inspector had given me a passing grade, and all I had to do was get back to the starting line and park the truck.
So, this is how it went, as before, all turns prior to getting on the highway were fine, the highway run was great as before. This time, when I exited, I got into the correct lane to make the left hand turn. I successfully exicuted the right hand turn where I hit the curb last time. I was on the way back and the Inspector wrote me up with a passing grade. I made the right turn, and was wide as needed, when a car came out of no where straight at me. I turned back to the right early and unfortunately put the trailer wheels up on the curb. One hundred yds to go to park the truck, and the Inspector scratched out the pass and failed me. I was crushed. I just couldnt believe it.
I am back at home now, I have to wait another two weeks to retest. Hopefully, third time is the charm. I am determined to get this once and for all.

Regards till then,
Don
