Hazard Perception Test. Once you've got through the theory test you will then go on to the hazard perception test. This test consists of 14 video clips, each lasting about one minute. The clips feature various types of hazards, such as vehicles, pedestrians and 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 you pressing the mouse button, the higher the score. You can score up to five marks on each hazard and the test contains 15 scoreable hazards. The pass mark for this part of the test is 44 out of 75. Various CD-Rom's and DVD's are also available to help you get through this test. You have to pass both the theory and the hazard perception in the same sitting or it will result in a fail. You will be given your results at the end of the test. If you have passed then you will get a pass certificate which expires within two years, so you will have to pass your practical test within that time. Good luck!
