Hi Everyone,

I have been practicing for my theory test with some of the online demo tests such as this one;

https://www.camrider.com/hazard-perception-test.html

But they seem very easy surely the actual test is not this easy to pass, does anyone know if these are on the right lines or if there is a better test to try.

Just had a go at twenty questions, looks like the same questions for an app i use but some of the questions were slightly worded differently.

I will point out though it did not ask questions about signs, first aid and motorways unless it's later on in the test but they will be included. Oh, and don;t forget the maximum speed of a mobility scooter Smile

Not sure if spam or genuine question.

Either way, you can train a chimp to pass it. I've done my car and bike one and revised for neither. Passed both first time.

When I was practising my test I used an app on my phone. The free version was "easy" in other words didn't contain every question you're likely to be asked. The paid version did.

Hazard tests I found fucked over, I'd click on a hazard and it'll not class it or some shit, and seeing as the definition of a hazard on a motorcycle is "anything with the potential to harm you or cause you to change direction or speed" then theoretically should be clicking every time you see a car moving...

If you're that worried about it, get a copy of this:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/011553234X?cache=813e11e436e00dd42fa97e919547e631&pi=SY200_QL40&qid=1400784933&sr=8-2#ref=mp_s_a_1_2
(available in all good books stores) and pass it on to someone else who's preparing to do their test after you've passed.

The book can look a little like hard work at first glance but, it isn't at all. I just used to browse through a few Q's & A's while the adverts were on the telly and also had a couple of apps on my phone that I used to do while on my break at work. I used to see it more as a little game than actual study, as it isn't difficult but, doing the above helped me get the correct answers to the handful of questions that might trip you up. I managed to only get one wrong on the day.

Good luck. Thumbs Up

I remember when I took my test years ago for the car, from the age of 15 1/2 I'd been reading the Highway Code in the bath most nights. Then the examiner asked me a couple of questions and that was it! The bike thory I did recently I used apps and computer and internet stuff. The test itself was a piece of piss!

Just book and do the test. Hardly going to cost a fortune and it is that easy.

Its easier to pass than fail. 90% of the questions are pure common sense.

hazard perception test looks like the real thing,

remember, click when you see a possible hazard, click as it develops, click when you'd normally slap the driver round the head for not avoiding it - the guy driving sets out to cause the issue for the film.

so that should be about 3 clicks a hazard maximum.

one or two clips might have a second hazard in them
