Is parallel parking on the driving test in Maryland?

I’m really nervous about it because I learned how to parallel park in a car with a backup camera but I won’t have a backup camera on the exam. Do I have to parallel park on my driving test in Maryland?

Try not to be nervous about your exam—especially because parallel parking is not on the driving test in
Maryland
.
You also won’t have to make a three-point turn. Both of these items were eliminated from the driving test in 2015.
However, parallel parking is still a useful skill, so it’s worth
learning how to do it
even if your driving test doesn’t depend on it. If you live in a decent-sized city, chances are that you’ll need to parallel park on occasion, so mastering the art will make things a lot easier for you.
