DVSA ADI Part 1, Theory And Hazard Perception Test Explained

After obtaining a Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check and registering through the DVSA website, the next step in the qualification process to become a driving instructor is the Theory And Hazard Perception Test, DVSA ADI Part 1

There is no limit to how many attempts you are allowed at DVSA ADI Part 1, however, each attempt obviously results in increased expense.

DVSA ADI Part 1 consists of two elements:

• The Theory Test
• The Hazard Perception Test

Both elements must be passed at the same time; failing either element means that the whole test has to be retaken.

The Theory Test consists of 100 multiple choice questions on a variety of topics, including:

• Road Procedure
• Traffic Signs & Signals
• Pedestrians
• Car Control
• Mechanical Knowledge
• Law
• Driving Test
• Disabilities
• Instructional Techniques
• Publications

The Hazard Perception Test consists of 14 video clips featuring 15 scorable hazards which must be identified

The Hazard Perception Test is not a test of your reaction time, it is a test of anticipation.

The earlier each hazard is identified the higher the score.
