theory test
Before you can book your practical driving test you will need to have passed your Theory test.
You can do your theory test from the age of 17 onwards. You must have a provisional licence to take the test.
The theory test itself is made of two parts. The first part consists of 50 multiple-choice questions which tests your knowledge of driving practices. The second part is a video-based hazard perception test which assesses your ability to respond to hazardous situations on the road.
Both parts are taken on the same day, you will need to pass both parts to pass the theory test. If you fail one part and pass the other, you will fail the whole test and will need to take both parts again. The driving theory test pass mark is 43/50 for the multiple-choice test and 44/75 for the hazard perception test.
You can use books and software to revise for the theory test and take practice tests.
The multiple-choice questions in the theory test are based on 3 books found at the following links:
