Wouldn't it be easier to actually study and point out everything that could be a hazard even if you're not sure about it? I mean a person trying to cross the road is a hazard, a car in front that is a foot away is a hazard and so is a cyclist on the road.

Is it just me or does nobody seem to do 'well' in the hazard perception test? Ok, people pass, but it's nothing to shout about. Rachel did hers the other day, got 35/35 and 46/75. It's a pass, but why haven't I seen or heard of people getting 60+. The most I have heard of is about 57/58 which a lad at work got.

The thing is you're supposed to spot the hazards before they develop, so if it looks like a car up ahead is going to pull out give it a click then, instead of waiting until it does. If you've clicked once because something might turn into a hazard and it does, give it another click. I got 69/75 on mine doing it this way.

I did the hazard perception thing, I got 74/75 Very Happy

I was having driving lessons at the time and they helped alot, you have to imagine everytime you would go to check your mirror (e.g a parked car, or lights, or car pulling out) then you click the mouse.

Dont be scared to click the mouse several times as you see a hazard developing, just dont go mental with it!

I got 48 or something in the hazard perception, but I spotted all of em pretty much the split second I saw it coming but I didnt click when it actually happened apart from on one which took ages to actuall arrive in front of you, guess that's why I got pretty much half marks, if they'd explain the fuckin thing better you might actually do it right.
