Isle of Man to Introduce HPT

The Isle of ManI found this story on Manx Radio.

From April this year, those sitting the theory test in IOM will have to do a computerised section on spotting hazards. The legislation has yet to be approved by Tynwald – that’s the IOM Parliament – but April isn’t far away, so this looks like it is a long way towards being implemented.

The test would be administered by the Department of Education and Children.

The HPT (Hazard Perception Test) was not popular over here, though personally I never had a problem with it and I still don’t. It’s definitely better than nothing at all, and it makes people think. In fact, most of the moaning came from people who couldn’t do it – which doesn’t automatically make it wrong, does it?
