As you start learning to drive the first test will pass the theory test. This consists of two parts. The first part is the multiple choice questions. There is a bank of 970 questions and asked a random 50 of whom will have at least 43 correctly to pass this first part. The test is conducted on a modern touch screen and you can dial any questions you are not sure and come back later to finish this part before.
The second part is the hazard perception test. This is a short video clip of 1 minute in length that will rise to risks that are on the road in front of you. You point by clicking the mouse when you see a development of this risk could be anything from a pedestrian crossing point on the road in front of a car that you turn in an afternoon in front of you. He was awarded points for risk and these range from 5 to detect the danger in his first time to 0 to detect late or not at all. The system also incorporates a detector of tricks that allow dis-steady rhythmic clicking or clicking on the clip. In general it is better if you click on an area of potential danger, and then again when possible and is once again to ensure a score. You will have 57 minutes to complete both parts of the test and when you’ve finished a few minutes later you are presented with a piece of paper giving the verdict.
You need to keep the certificate in a safe place as you may have to produce it when you go for your practical test later.
There are a number or resources available to practice your theory test and a series of test sites online that can help with your revision.
