In the UK, the theory driving test typically takes around 57 minutes to complete. The test is divided into two parts:
- Multiple-Choice Questions:
- This part consists of 50 multiple-choice questions, and you have 57 minutes to complete it. You need to answer at least 43 questions correctly to pass.
- Hazard Perception Test:
- After the multiple-choice section, you will take the hazard perception test, where you'll watch 14 video clips showing everyday road scenarios. You need to identify developing hazards. There is no set time limit for this part, but the test typically takes about 20 minutes to complete.
Overall, you should expect the entire theory test appointment to take about 1 hour and 30 minutes from start to finish, including instructions and breaks between sections.
