Is parallel parking on the driving test in Texas?

Will I have to parallel park in order to pass my driving test in Texas? I’ve never parallel parked before, and they didn’t teach us how to do it in driving classes. I’m worried that I might fail if I have to do it.

. In fact, it’s the second thing you’ll have to do on your exam! Try not to panic, though, especially since you’ll be allowed to use any helpful technology in your car on the test, including backup cameras.

And even if you don’t have a backup camera, you can still learn how to parallel park before your exam! Just have an experienced driver take you out to practice for at least two hours a few days ahead of your exam so that you’re prepared.

Does the Volvo XC40 have adaptive cruise control?

Normally I won’t touch anything Swedish, be it meatballs, lingonberries, Ikea furniture, members of ABBA, or Tomten (the Swedish Santa Claus). But I’m intrigued by the Volvo, as we like to take long road trips during the summer. Does the Volvo XC40 have adaptive cruise control?

How can I compare car insurance rates?

My current car insurance policy is about to expire, and when I spoke with them about a renewal, they increased my rate by almost half! I tried looking at other car insurance company websites, but it all just got too confusing. I really don’t want to stay with my current company and pay so much for insurance. Is there an easy way for me to compare car insurance rates?
