jusst as the title says really, got my theory tomorrow, Confused Confused any snippets of last minute advice for hazard perception would be bloody handy. Fairly confident for multiple choice, but for some reason, the hazard bit has my botty twitchn!!! Mad Mad

Don't worry about it, just watch the demo video, before you start the section. You can watch it twice if you want. Just remember to breathe! And don't get carried away clicking the mouse! Thumbs Up

Actually, do get carried away... unless you click more than once a second or something, they won't penalise you, so every single little think, click.

Indeed @ G.

I was clicking the mouse 5 or 6 times per clip, even when there was only one hazard.

Did it on my car test and bike test, got high marks in both by doing it. Thumbs Up

If you click too many times in one clip or you keep clicking repeatedly then you will score 0 for that clip as it thinks you have tryed to cheat.

It has to be more than once a second or something ridiculous. So cliking twenty or thrity times during a clip isn't a problem.

Remberer there are lots of potential hazards in each clip, but only the one that develops into a real hazard is scored... best to be safe rather than sorry in my opinion.

Just want to thank you all again for your advice, especially to a forum newbie!! Made me feel all warm inside Sick "hard part" next you say? Not as worried for that as i was for theory. I only started browsing the forum for advice on the test, but can't stay away now, no bad thing i spose?

Well done. Should be getting full marks on the question though Tut Tut

The thing that I was always saying to myself before my test, is to remember that it only takes 1 car to f3ck up your test.

As long aas you get your emergency stop and U-turn done ok, the rest is just common sense riding. Remember and be curtious, don't hesitate at junctions, and get up to the speed limit promptly (yes - on the national speed limit you can accelerate as fast the bike can up to the speed limit, but only if the road ahead is clear and safe to do so).

Just a few pointers that popped into my head, hope they help you.
