Not sure what I got wrong, but then I didn't train to drive in the US.

I scored 95%
How's this:

National Drivers Test - Results
Your score was: 100%

I don't want to be driving where the guys you're talking about drive.

Yeah, pretty scary thought. Everyone I've seen has scored well on it. But, they've all been bikers, ambulance personnel or police officers. I think that definitely makes a difference.

BTW, as far as the turning wheels thing, if your car rolls downhill with the wheel turned, it's only the front that will swing side to side before the car is stopped by the curb. Turning away when facing uphill and toward when facing downhill means your front end swings into the curb both times, keeping the car out of the middle of the road.
