Since I don't have a regular driver's license, my upcoming test will probably involve a road test. I'd like to know what people's experiences have been (especially in the SF Bay Area). Is the road test done before or after the handling test in the parking lot? If you can't stay in the circle (how strict are they?), can you still continue with the test or are you automatically failed? I can do everything else except stay in that &^*#$ circle. I rode bikes for several years back in the 70's, so have plenty of experience - just not driving in tight circles!
I don't have the option of using a smaller scooter for the test, so am looking for advice.
