Hazard
Perception
|
The hazard perception part
of the test commences after a break of up to three
minutes. You are shown a tutorial video first that
explains how the test works. For this part of the test,
you will need to wear the headphones provided. The test
itself consists of 14 video clips of around a minute
each.
Each clip contains numerous
hazards including parked cars, pedestrians, moving
vehicles and so on. When you see a hazard developing
that might result in the driver having to take some
action, specifically changing speed or direction, you
should click the mouse. The earlier you respond to the
situation arising, the better and the higher you will
score. The maximum score for each hazard is 5. 13 of
the 14 clips contain one hazard with the other clip
containing two. You need to score a minimum of 44
points in the hazard perception part of the test to
pass. |

Well Done, Now
you have passed!
|
Once both parts of the test
have been taken, you will be given your results before
you leave the test centre. You must pass both the
multiple choice and hazard perception parts at the same
time to achieve an overall pass. Scoring 50 on the
multiple choice is insufficient to pass overall if you
only score 43 on the hazard perception. |
