Passing the NY state road test?

Monday is my second time at trying to pass my road test. I took it in September and failed. I did fine with my parallel parking, but I hit the curb on my three point turn. The examiner also said I almost sideswiped a car when I changed lanes, which I don't believe I did. But, I've been practicing a lot. What some things I should definitely make sure I do, so that I pass? And how far do you pull up to the stop sign if there's no stop line or crosswalk?

"...No person shall use on a highway a pneumatic tire on a vehicle axle when the tire has less than ... One thirty-second (1/32) of an inch tread depth in any two adjacent grooves at any location of the tire...."

1/32" is the wear bars on a tire, once the wear bar is even with the tread the tire is illegal.

If you run in the rain, you hydroplane easier as the tread wears. For safety in the rain I would suggest no less than 5/32" of tread depth.

And, if you'll notice, even google maps is smart enough to put arrows on the direction of travel.
