How the hazard perception scores work
You can get up to 5 points for each hazard. You need to score at least 57 points out of 75 to pass this part.

Example
When you first see a parked car, it isn’t doing anything. When you get closer to it, you notice that its right-hand indicator starts to flash. The hazard is now developing and a response at this point would score marks.
You won’t score anything for a clip if you click continuously or in a pattern.
Your test result
You’ll get a pass certificate letter if you pass the test. You’ll need this when you book and take your approved driving instructor (ADI) part 2 test.
