Do y'all have some overly complex test? I know we're a bit forgiving over here. How hard could it be?
No. It's multiple choice, mostly common sense with a couple of bits to memorise (braking distances etc) but it should be very easy to revise for and then sit the exam.
50 questions, multiple choice answers. 4 possibles, 1 is always really daft so it's really 1 of 3. A couple of video clips with multiple choice answers. Then a series of video clips where you need to react to a hazard developing. Bicycles swerving in front of you, horses in the road etc. There's even one clip that has 2 swans crossing the road.
