A CDL test-taker cannot find suitable space in NYC to practice parallel and offset parking in a large vehicle, and is unsure if practicing with a 26-foot U-Haul box truck is adequate preparation for a Mack Granite dump truck.

No convenient, accessible practice locations for CDL skills in dense urban areas like NYC, and no guidance on vehicle-specific training equivalency.
