![]() To summarise, there are 14 clips in total, with 13 of the clips containing one hazard and one clip with two hazards. I'm not sure how much help they'll be this close to your test, but it should help a bit. I highly suggest watching some of Driving Crawley's videos about the HP on YouTube. Honestly, I wish you all the best but you've buggered up a bit here by not preparing for it. I thoroughly revised, consistently getting 65/75 on mock tests and on the actual test scored 55/75. The pass mark is 44/75 and people still fail on it after weeks of practice.īecause it isn't so much knowing when a hazard appears as when you should click and how often you should click to maximise your chances of scoring highly but without triggering the disqualification screen for clicking too much or in a pattern. The hazard perception is, by far, the hardest part of the whole test and you really should have prepared for it because it's where most candidates will fail. Remember, it’s a hazard perception test, not a 'spot other road users' test – being able to clearly identify when you need to take action, and when the road is safe to proceed is a skill which all responsible drivers need.But I have neglected the hazard perception part as I've heard it is pretty basic So don’t just click when you see a perfectly safe road, with other road users who could potentially become a hazard click when you see those potential hazards developing and you, as a driver, need to take action. If you’re clicking at everything you see as a 'potential' hazard, or simply repeating your clicks in the hope you'll catch a hazard you may have missed you can get disqualified from that clip. It is good practice to click when you would take action, and again a second or two later, to ensure your click is within the scoring window, this will hopefully ensure you get some marks, even if your immediate click is slightly premature.Īs mentioned above a click represents you taking action against a hazard. In such scenarios you need to keep your eye on the pedestrian to ensure you’re ready to react in case they do turn into a developing hazard. The pedestrian walking their dog may continue along the pavement with no intention of ever crossing the road meaning you have hit the breaks or slowed down (as represented by your click) for no real reason. NEED TO CLICK: The pedestrian is making clear movements to cross the road or obstruct your path.Ĭlicking as soon as you spot a potential hazard, means you can also be clicking on a hazard which never starts to develop.TOO EARLY: A pedestrian is walking their dog on the pavement.You may simply be clicking before the hazard is actually a hazard. So how is it possible to click ‘too early’? When you click during the hazard perception test you are registering the need to take action in order to avoid this hazard developing into an accident, such as beginning to slow down for a pedestrian who is about to cross the road. It is really important to remember that a hazard, in the hazard perception test, is something which will cause you to take action in the form of changing your speed or direction. Are you practising for your Hazard Perception test but keep getting told you're clicking the hazard too soon?
