Before you can book your practical driving test, you must successfully complete the theory and hazard perception test. The theory test is a 50 question multiple choice test and the hazard perception test contains 14 video clips which test your ability to identify developing hazards.
TRY OUR FREE THEORY TEST GAME
We have a free theory test game which you can use to test your knowledge of the theory behind driving a car in the UK. It has over 300+ questions for you to try.
Your Theory Test is split into 2 parts; part 1 is multiple choice and part 2 is Hazard Perception.
Part 1
You will have 57 minutes in which to answer 50 multiple choice questions. The pass mark required for this section of the test is 43 out of 50.
Part 2
The Hazard Perception section has 14 video clips in which you have to identify the developing hazard. Scores are awarded depending on how early you spot the hazard. The maximum score per hazard is 5. 13 of the video clips will have 1 scoring hazard and 1 video clip will contain 2 scoring hazards. To achieve a pass in this section you will need to score a minimum of 44 out of 75.
Don't forget, you need to pass both parts of the test. If you pass one part but fail the other part you will need to resit both parts of the test.
While our free theory test game is a useful aid for studying whilst learning to drive, it does not cover all the subject matter. We strongly recommend that you use an up to date theory test aid such as Driving Test Success - All Tests.
