Might be useful for newbies looking to pass their test int he future (after summer 2013), new hazard perception video clips.

There's a few hazards I spotted, starting with following the car infront so close!

The clip looks un-lifelike, I do not like the filter or whatever it is they've applied. I could have produced better with a £200 camcorder. I bet the company got paid hundreds of thousands for that rubbish.

Following the car infront is bad driving, not a hazard per se (which is anything that may cause you to brake or change direction).

I heard they've paid round about £3,000,000 of the contract, maybe wrong though lol

That's because it's a computer game rather than a real clip. From the link:

It's all good though - everyone knows that when you screw up and crash on the road you get to start again from the last complete mile marker :eek:

Yes all new drivers look for cars that are digitized into a game because we all know if you slide off the road and end up on the roof a crane automaticallty picks you up and puts you back on the road.

No risk to life or limb in these cars.
