Driving Test - Hazard Perception
Once you have completed your Driving Theory Test, your Hazard Perception Test will begin in three minutes.
Prior to starting the actual test you will be shown a video tutorial with sample footage similar to what will be shown in your real test and the soundtrack will explain how to take your Hazard Perception Test.
The Actual Hazard Perception Test
The test will consist of fourteen one-minute long video clips with various hazards filmed from within a car journey - you must imagine you are the driver and click your mouse as soon as you see a hazard developing, be it vehicule(s), pedestrian(s), or road conditions.
Your click is to show your reaction to the potential hazard by changing speed, or direction to avoid the hazard. For this section, you can score up to a maximum of 5 marks on each hazard. The test contains 15 hazards and the pass mark is 44 out of a possible 75.
