Are there any places in Fresno/Clovis area in which to practice driving, such as an empty lot or a park?

Question

This is the situation. My mother wants to learn to drive again, and although she is familiar with the basics and the "hows" of driving, she wants to be able to practice her skills somewhere else than on the road, since she is slightly fearful and doubtful of her skills right now. So my question is this. Are there any places in the Fresno/Clovis area where you can practice driving, rather than on the road? It can be a park, an empty lot, and so on and so forth. Thank you!

Answer 1

What you can do is either go to your schools parking lot or use a stores parking lot as well when they are closed but ask someone first it will okay to do this because in some states it is illegal and you can be ticketed.

Good Luck

Answer 2

Try a department store parking lot after they close. There may be some trucks parked for the night, but they are usually off to the side. Any store lot after closing hours is a good place...I practised parking a semi in one!
