Theory

The theory test consists of two parts – a question part and a hazard perception part and you need to pass both parts of the theory test at the same time. The theory test must be passed before you can apply for the practical driving test.

Multiple Choice Questions
The first part of the theory test involves 50 multiple choice questions on a touch screen computer. Each question offers four possible answers of which one is correct. The pass mark is 43 out of 50. You can learn for the theory test using Theory Test Pro.

Hazard Perception (HPT)
When you’ve completed the questions, there will be a short delay and then the Hazard perception test will start. The test consists of 14 clips of film each lasting around 30 or 40 seconds. In total there are 15 “developing hazards” that you will need to identify. The sooner you identify the scoring hazards, the higher your score. There is a maximum of 5 points per scoring hazard. You only need to click the mouse, you do not need to move the mouse cursor over the hazard. The pass mark is 44 out of 75.
