Is there any reason to think he hasn't?

Curious.  According to both my driving instructor and the persons who
gave me my driving exams, it is not enough to just pull up and stop 
by a curb.  In order to parallel park you must stop by a car and
back up into the parking space.   And believe, I tried to convince
them that I didn't really have to do that to pass the test.
