You scored a 65% (B)! Your driving level is: a little risk


Joke of a test. You lose marks because other drivers drive too slow, (which they do on some national roads, overtaking lane of motorway*, etc)........



*Uh oh, shouldn't have opened than can of worms.... :eek:

/runs away :D

quarryman

72%.

Tbh, anyone who rates themselves as a highly skilled driver should lose points on that question. Those people are a hazard.

Tigger

You scored a 80% (A)! Your driving level is: very safe

now just for some info
i have hit a pedestrian (hard) not proud of it and not my fault (officially)
i put i always speed (a bit on main roads how else do you over take someone doing 90kmph)
and i only rated myself as somewhat skilled

i think its fair

I got 75%, that Q got me too - i certainly thought the guy driving at 40km/h in an 80 zone was going to slowly this morning, and the guy do 40 through the 50, 60 and 80 zone yesterday....

Its complete bollox as a test - as you quickly figure out how to do well, however it could be very good as an eye opener to folks about sh*t they do that not so good

Some of the questions are poor - i talk on the phone while driving, but only ever by using my bluetooth handsfree kit. I chage the radio/cd stuff, but by using the controls on my steering wheel. Surely there should be distinctions between doing what I do, and moving hands away from the steering wheel/looking at the radio and talking on your phone (non-hands free)

Talking on the phone is a MAJOR distraction I'm afraid - using hands free makes things better - but not doing it is best. I do it too btw - but you just have to realise it is decreasing your attention.

If you are trying to "figure it out" as you are answering then why are you taking the test?

hobochris

No reasonably bright person could stop themselves from trying to 'figure it out' while answering, IMO.

no reasonably bright person would need to try to figure it out!

ninty9er

Actually, since when was anything below 85% considered an A in the normal course of things....I know some modules in Universities have lower A limitis, but not in the general scheme of things.

Wonder could i nail it to Sean Quinn's a*s to say no thanks to their renewal quote:D

The only way to know you're a safe driver is to have a proper observer in the car

Not true, apparently. You'd think rating your own abilities as 'highly skilled' would lead to a higher risk assessment, wouldn't you?

OldmanMondeo

Trying to do the test properly I got 84%

Acting the tit, I got 17% anyone able to beat that?

I tried to answer fairly. I guess it puts a good value on experience.

Of course you could give all the "right" answers, but what would be the point of that?
