About touch screen computer

• All candidates for the driving theory test are now using the new ‘touch screen computer system’ to take their test. The touch screen system is easy to use.

• You need to select the answers by simply touching a computer screen for the multi choice element of the test and clicking a mouse button for the Hazard Perception test. You will have a practise session lasting up to 15 minutes to get used to the system before starting the actual theory test.

• The question/screens are easy to read on the screen. Only one question will be on the screen at any time, you will be able to move backwards as well as forwards through the test questions.

• You will be able to 'flag' any of the questions you want to go back to and look at again, you will also be able to change any of the answers you may feel need to be changed.

• Some questions will ask you to select more than one answer. You will be alerted by the system if you have not completely answered all the questions.

• Staff will be on hand to help you if you have any difficulties in using the new system.
