fluffed the Hazard perception theory test :(

[Romanov]

Got 34/35 on the questions but I buggered up the hazard perception videos, I thought you were only supposed to click once per clip I missed the pass mark by 5 marks so not much but any tips on what to do witht eh hazard perception videos Id be grateful as Ive got the next test booked for Friday...been driving 14 years clean license etc etc and yet apparently I cant spot a hazard lol

Don't want to sound dumb, but if you've been driving for 14 years, why are you taking the theory test?

[dkmech]

Well if you've done it once and now know what to do, and even not knowing you were just 5 away, surely you'll do it easy next time.

lol my gf took three attempts to pass her theory, questions were fine, just couldnt do the hazard perception part... of course i passed it first time just need to do the practical now tho..

why are you doing the theory test anyhow?

oh and as for tips, just click as soon as there is something which might be a hazard (even if it doesnt become the main hazard.. ie a cyclist or lorry in the road.. kinda stuff which means you *might* have to slowdown...),

[TomWilko]

I don't get it?! 14 years driving and you have to re-sit the Hazard test?

[Stoo]

You just click once per potential hazard, that's it. Points are scored for timing

HI,
Sorry it was for the bike test not car, should have said that, I didnt understand the instructions I think I only clicked once per clip and twice on the double hazard, so I can
- Click as many times per clip as I want?
- I dont get penalised for clicking say 6-7 times per clip?
- Do you click for hazards like road humps and other road hazards not caused by humans? I assume so
thanks for the help

I done my car test, and passed first time, this is what I did.

Once I see a hazard which might develop, i click once, wait 0.5 seconds, click again, wait another 0.5 seconds and click again. But dont click more than 9 times in one clip, and dont click too fast between clicks.

Gotcha I was way off then I did see other sclick lots of times and thats what I think went wrong I should have clicked through the hazard to make sure I got the points not just clicked once thnx

[Rythmic]

Only other advice is go and get the software for your computer - helps a lot to understand where the examiners think you should be clicking, and what they class as a hazard.

Do you click for hazards like road humps and other road hazards not caused by humans? Not that I could make out - It's only hazards that "develop".

I clicked about 6-7 times per clip - just don't make it too often!

[Romanov]

Cool I only missed it by 5 points so I think it was clicking once per clip that I came a cropper on Ill do the above on Friday
