Right- i've booked my theory test/hazard perception test for next Wednesday (24th) at 10.30.

I was full of confidence when i booked it-but now im thinking 'Do i really know enough?'

I been getting 32/35, 33/35 on my practice tests so i should be ok. But i reckon i'll proper mess up the hazard perception bit! Eeeeek!

I wouldn't worry too much about the hazard perception. I know you can get a CD to practice with but I just went straight in and passed easily. Just click anytime you see something remotely dangerous and you'll be fine. Thumbs Up

yeah, it is kind of easy.
for my hazard perception practise. i was scraping passing, but for the real thing, some were so obviously staged and blatant. they used a bmw rider a few times and even had a fake learner driver who pulls out on you, stalls, reverses and everything else thats bad. real thing is easier than practise one for sure!
you'll be fine! Laughing

The 'hazards' on the hazard perception bit aren't exactly subtle... people walking out in front of you, cars coming onto your side of the road, stuff like that. Although in all but one of the clips there's only one hazard that you actually get scored for spotting, don't be shy to click a few times whenever you see something a bit dodgy going on.
In my opinion (disclaimer!) the warning about clicking too many times only applies to if you really hammer the mouse like you're trying to win the 100m at International Track & Field Smile

Biro and cooking oil, anyone? Laughing

That is also what I made of the warning. It seems to say that if you overclick, that clip will end straight away. I clicked for every single potential hazard, and I do mean every one. T-Juction coming up on the left, hazard! Car parked by the side of the road, hazard! Car coming in the other direction, hazard! I'm not joking, I really stretched the meaning of the word hazard to its limits, but never had anything tell me i was clicking too much(and I passed).

A few words of advice....

Remember not to click as if you are breaking....

Click when you initially see a hazard
Click when the hazard "changes"
Click again if the hazard changes again.......and again...and again...
And finally
Don't click like a mad man - if the flags go to far to the right you will lose all potential marks for that section.

Doobs.
