    Its a series of construction barrels and regular orange cones. You have to make right turns and left turns, go through a row of barrels a couple times, make a couple tight turns, and then stop as close to a barrel without hitting it as possible. You have to get close to the barrels without hitting them or you won't be able to make the next turn. It's just basically teaching you to maneuver safely in confined spaces without hitting things. You can practice it as many times as you want before you take the test. You are also allowed to stop and back up during the test so its not too tough. If it makes you feel better I will tell you a secret. You can't fail the written test, pre-trip, or the obstacle course. The two backing exercises and the road trip can get you sent home if you do something stupid like run into an object or run a red light or something obviously dumb like that. I wish you all the best. Where are you at in the process wd40?
