bad luck.

which part did u fail on? Multiple choice or Hazard Perception? I've heard of people failing on the hazard perception if they have been driving or riding for a while as we tend to click before the computer thinks we should.

book yourself in to do it again

all the best

I read the theory book 6 times before finally going for the test and passed it with flying colours!

They do like to throw in questions designed to catch you off gaurd.... so you have to watch out for them !

Get yourself the cd (if you havent already), spend more time on it. Book again! You will pass it.

got 100% on multiple choice and 38 out of 75 on hazard perseption, it didnt even score me for 3 questions and i know i clicked for every hazard!!!!!!!!
and riding on the road for that long shurlyis enough practice for hazard perseption.
i never failed it once at home,
ive got it booked for a week on thursday.

I think you'll like these sites because it provides practical help to pass a test with test question and examples.

Just because you didnt pass it first time it doesnt make you a shit rider! Go for your lesson and dont mention it if you feel uncomfortable saying so. You will get it next time.

Bad luck mate! Sad

The advise I was given by the test centre was not to click on every possible hazard just the immediate hazard's. He actually said people clicked on trees? Question

- only a hazard if it's falling into the road, eh? Laughing

Too many clicks and they'll not mark you at all for that piece of film/test.

Don't let failing the theory spoil the practical/fun part of learning.

thanks guys, ill just do my best tomorow and not tell him about my theory.

My turn tomorrow, i'm more worried about multiple choice than hazard perception, I have found all the practice ones a breeze.

It's only a theory test......try failing your actual bike test.....on the last corner before the test centre.........LOL Laughing

I can look back and laugh now but was pissed at the time....

Don't let it get you down, it's nothing, you'll pass next time round Thumbs Up

Haven't you got to pass your CBT test before sitting the theory and here's the proof from DVLA's homepage

from 1 February 2001

After 1 February 2001 when you successfully complete CBT you will get a Certificate of Completion (DL 196) which will be valid for 2 years. Certificates issued prior to that date will be valid for 3 years. Keep your CBT certificate safe because you will need it when you apply for and take your moped or motorcycle theory test.

You will also need it when you apply for and take your moped or motorcycle accompanied test, and you may need to show it to the police if required.

He's got his first lesson tomorrow not his test, but yes, you need to pass the theory before you can do the practical.....

what are you on about pal??? ive got my CBT. and knowone asked me for it anyway, probably stored somewhere on my provision lisece files or something.
anyway yes ive only got a lesson if thats what your on about?????? Confused

I don't think you should be allowed to take your theory test again. It's so easy that anyone who fails it is clearly a danger to other road users, you should be banned for life before someone gets killed.

hazard perception is shit! It took me 2 times to get it, full marks on the multiple choice each time. Problem is your not in the right frame of mind for spotting hazards as your brain knows your sitting at a computer not on a bike. Also the test is flawed! you can see and click a hazard before the computer thinks you should be able to!!

My mates onto his 6th or 7th theory test next thursday, fails everytime on the hazard perception.

Although I past first time on car and bike tests, I still disagree with it.

If it's any consolation I failed my theory twice on Hazard Perception. 35/35 in the questions every time, then got 43/44 next time got 42/44 then the time I passed I got 53. Look on eBay for "Roadsense DVD" it shows you what you should be clicking for and helped me a lot. Worst thing is, I've to do another one for the car in a few months! Sad

You pleb. But seriously, if you didn't get scored for 3 questions then you might have clicked too many times for those questions. The computer thinks you're clicking randomly and scores you as nothing.
