![]() The HPT test formatĮach video clip starts with a freeze frame and a 10 second countdown time to when the clip will start. ![]() You will score between 0 and 5 on any one clip depending on when you click the mouse, aka you react to the developing hazard. On rare occasions, there may be a clip with no hazard shown. That means at least one of the clips will have 2 hazards. The clips are shown from the perspective of you being the driver.Īlthough there are 14 questions, there will be 15 developing hazards to identify. I had a fair few where kids would kick a ball or dart out whilst play fighting with each other, which, in 1 vid, were followed by their mum darting out to catch them!Ĭyclists in the distance - CLICK!! I think in every clip I had that had a cyclist, they ended up causing a potential hazard!Īpproaching a roundabout - click! Due to people not using indicators, I noticed a lot of potential hazards when at roundabouts!īest thing to do is treat it like a video game, that you HAVE to win! Have a strong coffee beforehand, do whatever you can to sharpen your reactions! It is true they have some kind of way of detecting if you're constantly clicking the mouse, but I clicked ALOT when I did mine, at absolutely anything I considered could turn into a hazard and it obviously paid off.In the HPT, you’re required to view 14 hazard video clips on a computer. I noticed a lot of them would dart out last minute, causing you to slow down, despite the fact they didn't do it with any cars in front of you.ĪNY KIDS you see at any point during the clip - click. I noticed in a lot of my HP vids parked cars with people still in them often pulled out, or indicated really late then pulled our, or didn't indicate at all!Ĭars at junctions that are edging their way out - click. Like people walking down the pavement - click - in case they rush out into the roadĭriving up to bollards in the road and pedestrian crossings (even if there is nobody on them) - click - they sometimes appear from nowhere.Ĭars coming from the opposite way, even when they seem along way out and you have cars parked on your side - click - with cars on your side, they cause an obstruction and cause you to sometimes go over the white line. I got 87 on my HP I'll explain below what I didĮVERYTHING you see that could develop into hazard - click. Luke LDP SENIOR MEMBER Posts: 109 Joined: Sat 10:40 am I am passing each clip 4-5 points on the practice ones at home but this doesn't seem to work on the day. Thanks, hoping some light can be shed on this and if anyone can offer any more advice that would be great! Would it be worth getting the official DVSA DVD? I am currently logged into driving theory 4 all and using their clips and scoring system. It is better to click more times in a video clip than less? Some clips today I only clicked once in the whole clip The first click within the '5 second window' is the one which counts, even if I click again after the first click still in the '5 second window' I won't be marked down for clicking when I see ANY potential hazards, so long as I'm not clicking excessively Just to clear up whether this is correct: Getting really frustrated with it all now, I have been car driving 7 1/2 years so feel like its very patronising being made to do this test again. ![]() I have tried the technique of clicking two seconds after the initial click (on the first attempt), that didn't work so tried today just clicking whenever I saw a hazard, and scored 66 out of 100 - 1 mark off a pass! I have today failed for the second time my hazard perception test.
