Yes my school is super ghetto. The cones are never straight, the trucks are super beat, and one of the two instructers just don’t want to be there. Anyway can anyone tell me the dimensions of an offset lane and a parallel parking box? If it’s different for every state, i’m in NY. Where can I get this info from as the dmv is clueless and my instructers are curious as well. They are using dimensions givin to them by the owner of the school and are unsure if it’s official or not. One girl in the class keeps saying its like 10 ft wide and and no more then 5 foot in length including the truck and insists that that’s “what she saw” when she failed the test.. “it’s that tight yall” I believe is what she said! We aren’t allowed to move the cones because of her persistance that “thats how tight it is on the test, i’m telling you”!
As the fear mongering progressed thru the class, one has to question the validity of her claims!

Dimensions are 12 foot wide for the parallel park and off set backing boxes. For parallel park you get 15 foot longer than the vehicle length. Boundaries are 140 foot forward of the box for offset backing, and side boundaries for parallel park is 40 foot.
Alley dock is 12 foot wide, 40 foot deep with a 2 foot box in the rear. Boundaries are 70 foot from the front of the box along a straight line from the right side of the box.
