well, i just failed the damn hazard perception test. The video is a roughly 320 X 240 ultra low-res clip so you cant even make out a car from a rock or a tree or a wheelchair in the distance. The slow down and turn ones seemed easy enough but the ones where the cars turning from the right have right of way, they stop for seeminlgy no reason. The whole test is a cash sucking bunch of child molesting parrot droppings. I am a pizza delivery driver and have been for about a year ever since i got my Ps, i drive 20+ hours a week and i have driven over 15,000 kms on my Ps in peak traffic urban conditions as well as highways so im about as experienced and skilled as P platers get. I have not had ONE crash or incident on the roads and i find this test ridiculous. You dont drive a car and cross intersections by watching a video of your car and pressing some fruity screen when it prompts you to do stuff, how it is even relevant to real world conditions is beyond me..
