Candidates being failed driving road test left and right - Ontario

Is it just me or has anyone else observed that people are being failed for petty reasons like reverse parking, braking too hard etc ?

There has always been a high rate of failure for road tests. Things like reversing into a parking spot is pretty important.

Really ? Hmm...

Could you please share any situation that mandates reverse parking where front parking is not possible ? Just curious

Don't think anyone needs to justify basic driving skills being required.

There are some parking lot/parkade that have one-way paths and some of the spots will need to be reversed into.
Just an example. But both front and reverse parking are important for basic driving. Same for parallel parking!
