Here in VA, you can either take the DMV road test with one of their officials (VA stopped using cops long ago) or licensed driving school instructors can give it, the latter is how I did it.

One day, I was driving around with my instructor. I follow his directions like normal, then he told me to park the car in this lot. I thought we where trading drivers, and he said "congrats, you just passed your driving test."

So I gave him the what-the-fuck-just-happened look and said "cool."
