nasty, you just missed it by about 2 days, but you gotta do 50 questions instead of the 35, as it changes next week!

My other half is doing hers today, so she's hoping she passes it!

You'll be fine so long as you do revise lol.

I'm 16 and got mine out the way the other week, it's luck of the draw what they give you, but it's only "easy" if you know the answer. I used www.theory-test.co.uk which helped alot and www.2pass.co.uk aswell Thumbs Up

That perception DVD is the best practice you will get too...it's nothing to dread seriously! Wink

One of those clipboard marketers stopped me just as I found out I failed. Told him I wasn't in the mood and that I failed my theory, he said "This your first time? Don't worry, I failed my theory 7 times and my driving test 4 times, finaly on the road now though" I had to laugh.

Failing on the hazard perception isn't all that bad, failing on the mc part is generally a lot more embarassing, especially once your mates get a hold of you. Razz

Best advice would be to get one of those hp DVDs, really helped me after I failed first time, went up from like 41 to 66.

DATE POSTED: 28 Aug 2007

49/50 Multiple Choice




I thought the rules didnt change until 3rd Sept or so, so how come you had to answer 50 questions prior to this date?

Or am i missing something here?


You're missing something Wink

First post on this thread was edited on 4th Sept - I can only assume that was with the results! Cool

HP is a joke. It is a putter nerds idea of what a biker should do. It is a game, it is not real life. I had to do one a few years back and almost copped out, I over reacted and I reacted to early. I did not fail in life, I failed in some programers game.
They still charge you fifty quid for the pleasure of playing though.

Not £50! It's £28.50 since 3rd September and was £21.50 before that. Still it's not all that cheap for what you do. The hazard perception is complete rubbish though, I agree. It has no resemblance of what would happen on the roads because you would actually be in control, not just watching a video.

What's really a joke is that I had to pay it twice because I want to drive both a car and a motorcycle Rolling Eyes .

Mofos ripped me off for 50 notes!
I bow to your knowledge brother, it is a hell of a lot of cash for sitting in front of a PC whatever it costs Mr. Green
