THE HAZARD PERCEPTION TEST
This part of the theory test requires you to view 14 hazard video clips on the computer screen of approximately one minute each.
You are required to watch these clips as if you were the driver. There will be 15 hazards to find - at least one on each clip.
However, one clip will have 2 hazards. The hazard clips will not contain any sound.
You click either the left or right mouse button whenever you think you can see a hazard developing. The speed at which you click the mouse button as a hazard develops will determine your score for that particular hazard clip.
You can score between 0 and 5 on each hazard. Therefore the maximum you can score is 75 (i.e. 15 hazards x 5).
To pass you need a score of 44.
