Guides and Tips
The theory test is not as straightforward as many people assume. In fact, in order to earn a pass you’re going to have to do some revision beforehand. The test is made up of a multiple choice section and a hazard perception test. Make sure you read up on your Highway Code and learn how to spot developing hazards.
