Theory Test
This forms the first part of the Theory and Hazard Perception Test you have 40 minutes to answer 35 questions, and to pass you must get at least 30 right. ( This will be 50 questions from the 3rd September 2007 the pass rate stays the same so you will need to get 43 right, the cost will increase to £28 ).
The questions have multi choice answers selected by touching the correct box displayed on the computer screen. Some of the questions will need more than one answer so you may need to select more than one box,
The questions are all listed in the Official Theory Test for Motorcyclists which you can buy or borrow.
There are about 1000 questions in the database, and your 35 will selected at random by the computer at the start of the test.
The level of the average question is not that high if you have done your home work. Most are highway code based, some are related to safety, and some are “ common sense “. However to make a database of questions large enough some of the questions can be obscure such as “ What is the maximum permissible width of a motorcycle trailer “ ( 1 metre ). For some strange reason tram related questions also seem to occur frequently. I can only assume the developers were based in Manchester.
If you want to practice the test more fully there are several CD ROMs published available at places like PC World. If you would like more guidance we are more than happy give a free training session as part of your course. Just arrange it with Sally.
