Description
Passing the UK Driving Theory Test is the first of two steps towards ditching the L plates and becoming a fully qualified driver. This 10 hour course matches the current syllabus, and is designed to help reinforce your knowledge so you can successfully prepare for and pass your theory test.
Become familiar with everything from traffic signs and driving in adverse weather to the rules of the road for drivers. Learning the theory is very important in helping you become a safe and competent driver, so whether you are just starting driving lessons, or have been learning for a while, you can get ahead with your revision with this e-learning package.
What Is The Driving Theory Test?
Before you take your first driving lesson you will have applied for a provisional licence. Once you have done this, you can book your driving theory test. You can book the test, when you are ready, from your 17th birthday onwards. You need to pass both parts of the theory test – a set of multiple-choice questions and a hazard perception test. You could be tested on elements of the Highway Code, or be presented with a real life situation you may face while driving. In the hazard perception test you’ll be presented with video clips and will have to spot developing hazards.
This course mainly focuses on preparing for the theory test, with modules on the core elements of driving and road safety, plus revision tips. You’ll end the course with information on the practical test, how it’s carried out and marked, and when to book it.
Why Do I Need To Take A Driving Theory Test Course?
If you look back on any exam or test you’ve taken, I’m sure you’ll agree the best way to prepare is using a variety of different study methods – and this course could be one of them. Working through the online modules will help reinforce what you’ve learned from books, actual driving lessons and practice tests, building confidence that can help you with both the driving theory test and the practical.
