It's kind of rigged. Some driving instructors even tell people about it. if vic roads suspect that you've been told how to cheat it by your driving instructor they can fail you straight up.

I was told when i did it 6 years ago that you count 1, 2, and touch on 3. don't touch on the questions where it shows you tyring to turn right, and never over take. I did it and passed by a mile. My apprentice has just gone for his p's and was told the same thing by his instructor, did it and passed easily too.
It's a stupid test. They should extend the driving test to an hour and you can get a much better guage of someones hazard perception skills in traffic than you can on a screen. Its an un-natural situation to be tested in. A defensive driving course should be mandatory. Many young people have absolutley no idea what to do in an emergency situation until they are in 1. Hazard perception test is just like another video game.
