Theory test: hazard perception

This is also a computer-based test, where you will be shown fourteen video clips, each one lasting about one minute. You will be shown a sample clip first, which will explain how to complete this part of the test.

The video clips feature various types of hazards, such as other vehicles, pedestrians, and varying road conditions. You should respond by pressing a mouse button as soon as you see a hazard developing that may result in the driver having to take some action, such as changing speed or direction. The earlier the developing hazard is spotted, and a response made, the higher the score.

You can score up to five marks on each hazard, and the test contains 15 score able hazards. You can score a maximum of 5 marks for each clip.

The pass mark is 44 out of 75 for car drivers.

You will be given your results when you have finished both parts of the test and have returned to the waiting room.
