The driving theory test in the UK consists of two parts: a multiple-choice test and a hazard perception test. The multiple-choice test covers a range of driving-related topics, while the hazard perception test assesses your ability to identify and react to potential hazards on the road. 

 

Here's a more detailed breakdown:

Multiple-Choice Test:

 

  • You'll be presented with 50 multiple-choice questions related to the Highway Code, traffic signs, and essential driving skills. 
     
  • You'll have 57 minutes to complete this section. 
     
  • You need to score at least 43 out of 50 to pass. 
     

 

Hazard Perception Test:

 

  • This section involves watching 14 video clips of real-life road scenes. 
     
  • You need to identify and click on any developing hazards (e.g., a car approaching you) within each clip. 
     
  • You need to score at least 44 out of 75 to pass.
