What is involved in the Theory test?

The Theory Test is designed to test your driving knowledge and hazard perception skills. It was first introduced on the 1st of July 1997 and is the first step in becoming a full UK driving licence holder. You will need to pass this before you can book your Practical Driving Test.

The Theory Test consists of two separate parts, the multiple-choice section and Hazard Perception. To pass the test, you will need to score at least 43 out of 50 questions in the multiple-choice section, and 44 out of 75 for Hazard Perception. The theory test requires plenty of revision and preparation to pass
