Today, at 2pm, I went into central London to take my theory test…it’s the ‘written’ part of the driving test. It is made up of 50 multiple choice questions and 14 hazard perception videos where you ‘click’ when a hazard comes up on the screen. It’s quite interesting! Here’s a sample of the hazard perception test: sample
And as you can tell from the title…well…I passed!
Now I get a chance to start taking driving lessons…and then the hell test, which most people have to take more than once. Yes, I’ve had a US driving license for YEARS….but due to the stupidity of the US, the UK doesn’t have a reciprocal agreement, so I have to take all these tests. It’s such a pain…but I want to get this done just in case we have kids and well, cause I really just want to be able to drive when I want to!

Lianne, thank goodness I didn’t have to take the tests in Australia. I just had to turn in my US licence and have my photo taken! LOL If the US has an agreement with Australia, I wonder why they don’t with the UK? They drive on the left side of the road here just like they do in the UK…go figure!
