Hazard perception test practice

Here are 20 free practice questions on the skills the HPT checks: scanning, following distance, safe gaps, pedestrians and riders, and night and wet driving. The real test uses video clips, and these are written scenarios, so treat them as a way to train your thinking, not a copy of the test. Aim for 16 out of 20. Anything you miss comes back at the end.
