THEORY TEST

Before taking your practical test, you will have to take and pass the theory test. You can take your theory test before your CBT but we recommend you take it after as a lot of the subjects will be covered on your CBT.

The theory test will gauge your knowledge and understanding of riding theory. A sound knowledge of the theory is essential to a better understanding of practical riding skills.

The theory is a two part test consists of 50 multiple choice questions to pass you will need to answer at least 43 out of 50 questions correctly. You will take the test using a computer screen. You will select your answers by simply touching the area of the screen that shows the answer of your choice.

Part 2 Hazard Perception Test is taken at the same time as the Theory Test.

During the test candidates are shown a number of moving video clips. Each clip contains one or more developing hazards.

The candidate will be asked to indicate as soon as they see a hazard developing which may result in the motorcyclist taking some action, such as changing speed or direction. The sooner a response is made the higher the score.

The pass mark is 44 out of a possible 75.

Hazard perception is the ability of a rider or driver to make an early identification of situations where some form of avoidance action might be necessary, such as changing speed or direction.
