CBT passed now for the theory

[staningrimsby]

Hi Everyone,

I passed my CBT yesterday after a few worrying moments involving the figure of 8 and the U-turn but now I am road legal for the next 2 years at least , but I don't want to stop there and would like to continue to a full licence.

My question really is whilst I understand the question part of the theory test I have never had to do the hazard perception part of it and clicking on mock ones off the internet is all well and good but on the actual hazard perception test do you click every time you see a hazard or are you only able to click the once ???

Has any one please got any tips as this is the bit I'm worrying about, I can practice the fissure of eight, U-turn etc before Mod 1 but don't want to fail my theory on a poxy hazard perception test when I I've been driving cars for 25 years.

Regards

Stan

The hazard perception should be alright. You need to click the mouse (left or righ button) every time you see a "potential" hazard. ie, a car about to pull out, a child walking down the street. Then when a potential hazard DEVELOPS into an actual hazard you click the mouse again. The earlier you spot when the potential hazard has turned into an actual hazard the more points you will score. The size of the scoring window changes with each clip too. There is load stuff about it on-line and quite a few sites will give you free clips to practice on.

Too many clicks or clicking in the pattern and you can be disqualified from scoring points on that clip. Personally, I think its more about getting your technique right more than anything. BTW I got 61 out of 75 and was disqualified from one clip!
