THEORY TEST
BEFORE GOING FOR YOUR MODULE 1 OR MODULE 2 PRACTICAL TESTS, YOU WILL NEED TO HAVE PASSED A MOTORCYCLE THEORY TEST.
THERE ARE TWO PARTS TO THE TEST:
-
50 MULTIPLE-CHOICE QUESTIONS
-
HAZARD PERCEPTION - A SERIES OF VIDEO CLIPS WHERE YOU HAVE TO SPOT HAZARDS IN AN ON-ROAD SETTING.
YOU BOOK AND TAKE THEM AS A SINGLE TEST. YOU HAVE TO PASS BOTH PARTS TO PASS.
TAKE OUR QUIZ BELOW TO GET A TASTE OF THE SORTS OF QUESTIONS YOU MAY BE ASKED.
MULTIPLE-CHOICE QUESTIONS
YOU HAVE 57 MINUTES TO ANSWER 50 MULTIPLE-CHOICE QUESTIONS ON THE HIGHWAY CODE.
A QUESTION AND SEVERAL POSSIBLE ANSWERS APPEAR ON A SCREEN.
SOME QUESTIONS ARE GIVEN AS A CASE STUDY. THIS WILL SHOW A SHORT STORY THAT FIVE QUESTIONS WILL BE BASED ON.
IN ORDER TO PASS THIS PART OF THE TEST, YOU WILL NEED TO CORRECTLY ANSWER 43 OUT OF 50 QUESTIONS (86%).
HAZARD PERCEPTION TEST
YOU CAN HAVE A BREAK OF UP TO 3 MINUTES BEFORE THE HAZARD PERCEPTION TEST STARTS.
YOU'LL THEN WATCH 14 VIDEO CLIPS.
THE CLIPS WILL:
-
FEATURE EVERYDAY ROAD SCENES
-
CONTAIN AT LEAST ONE 'DEVELOPING HAZARD' - BUT ONE OF THE CLIPS FEATURES 2 DEVELOPING HAZARDS.
YOU CAN SCORE UP TO 5 POINTS FOR EACH DEVELOPING HAZARD. TO GET A HIGH SCORE, CLICK THE MOUSE AS SOON AS YOU SEE THE HAZARD STARTING TO DEVELOP.
YOU DO NOT LOSE POINTS IF YOU CLICK AND GET IT WRONG. HOWEVER, YOU WILL NOT SCORE ANYTHING IF YOU CLICK CONTINUOUSLY OR IN A PATTERN.
IN ORDER TO PASS THIS PART OF THE TEST, YOU WILL NEED TO SCORE 44 OUT OF 75 OVER THE 14 CLIPS.
