I found the Hazard Perception Test a bit of a bitch because in some of the things I didn't know what they wanted. I ended up getting 74% or some shit, could have been lower. I think the pass is only 54%.
The driving is easy, I got dicked on mirrors 3 times and got 89% for the driving all together. I went for my manual P's though. Just remember, mirror, indicator and headcheck for each lane change! Sundeep |

Lol. It's crap these days because you have to do the hazard perception test before you do the driving test, otherwise you fail straight out.
InitialD, you get 2 sets of marks. One for the HP test and the other for driving. Did you average it to be 98%? You're a pussy anyways, you did auto test didn't you? And John, I doubt it'd be EBII Falcon. Burwood do like 100 tests a day. It's busy as down there, I'm sure there's more than 1 forum hoon going for their test today! Just outta interest EBII Falcon, what area are you from? I seen a car exactly like yours parked in Kilsyth near Canterbury Gardens SC. Sundeep Last edited by Sundeep; 10-05-2005 at 04:45 PM. |

Happy Birthday.
The hazard perception test is crap, cause the screens suck, so sometimes you don't know whether to go or not, the resolution is terrible. I failed my driving test first up, I was in a little ricer galant, manual with an Exhuast, my Tester was some uptight midget bitch who coud hardly see over the dash, I knew i was gunna fail strait up. :( Took the Test, same car a month later, got some nice friendly Irish guy, and got 100%. |

I got my Ls when I was 17.5 and only did 30 hours of practice before getting my license. I got 4 manual lessons just to make sure I knew what was expected of me in the driving test. I learnt heaps of stuff in those 4 lessons, and the instructor told me I was one of the best students he'd ever had lol.
I went for the test in a mate's ED 5 speed, but VicRoads ****ed me round for a bit because of the handbrake position. Sundeep |
