RTA DQT test in NSW Full licence Licence. O. P. I just went and sat the DQT test for a full licence and thought id share my thoughts. Ad Hoc Updates To System Catalogs Are Not Allowed Sql 2005 How To Fix. Silly questions. What would you do. Part 1. 0 scenarios. Touch the screen. I was tempted too cause i though i am meant to respond but i was right. Overall i passed the test. Hint to all those who are meant to do it. Its easy as hell. Thank you for sharing your thoughts, i am going for my full licence soon and was wondering what the test would be like. Did you study before you went for the testFollow the line of least resistance, then ye shall pass. Did you study, Joshua. I have been studying for the test, but have not done the test yet. Joshua. 12 writes. I have been studying for the test, but have not done test yet. Rito what materialbook The Driver Qualification Handbook and the RTA website. The two rules of the DQT computer section. Never turn right. Never overtaketan. Overall i passed the test. Hint to all those who are meant to do it. Its easy as hell. Thats why so many drivers suck. Overall i passed the test. Hint to all those who are meant to do it. Its easy as hell. Not surprising. Most drivers are voters. Implementing a tougher driver testing regime that prevents drivers from getting access to a licence political suicide. Also, more competent drivers will reduce the road toll. That would be disastrous for their justification of road safety measures such as speed cameras. O. P. Joshua. 12 writes. Did you study before you went for the testI had to book my test in the very last minute given i realised this week that my ps expire november. I also had uni exams going on. Plus i couldnt download the handbook from RTAs site. But i did do the practise tests. A truck is overtaking another car and is in your line. What would you do I mean do you really need to study for this. All the tests are a joke. We need to change the whole licensing system because right now its all about revenue for the RTAIt should go L plates for 1 2 years with at least 1. P plates for 3 years is pathetic. I know alot of people dont even bother going for their full license for a while, they just keep renewing their green Ps but i sure as hell would do it because displaying P plates and not being able to even have a single beer after work is just annoying. Stawky writes. It should go L plates for 1 2 years with at least 1. Thats what it is right now P plates are not much better and you need to stick with it for 3 years. Constant hassles by police, abuse from other road users and a need to display crappy P plates on the outside which scratch and damage your cars paintwork and fall off constantly is not right. In the US they learn for about 3 months and take the test and bang they got a full licence, i do not agree with that either. L plate period i believe it should be altered to give drivers more freedom. Stawky writes. All the tests are a joke. We need to change the whole licensing system because right now its all about revenue for the RTA This I agree with. Paying so that the examiner can sit in my car using my fuel They really should charge only if you pass, and if you fail, some kind of discounted fee should be applied rather than the whole amount. Argh I failed I was rushing, did it during lunch break. Theres this part where you drive behind a 4. WD it says touch the screen whenever you need to slow down. Are you supposed to touch the screen when his brake lights come on Because I did that but I still failed it GRRR Blue. Viper writes. Are you supposed to touch the screen when his brake lights come on I would hazard no pun intended that you should touch the screen IMMEDIATELY when it loads. Vavoom writes. that you should touch the screen IMMEDIATELY when it loads. BINGO3 second rule I didnt pickup on that because RTA car looked like it was going slow enough not to hit 4. WD in front and I wasnt really looking for markers to do a 3 second check. I was hoping for a pram, kid or cyclist but saw break lights and focused on that. Not an excuse just what went through my head the time. Edit 2nd attempt. I passed Failed the DQT first time, was not happy 1. You have an error margin of two questions in order to pass for each section FYI. Isnt the second section the same as the HPT where you never turn right and always slow down immediately Im pretty sure I adhered to that rule. EVERY instance of when to slow down The former seems to be justified, as all three of my errors came from the SD slow down questions, bah. Hmmmm. writes. 1 question was like. A truck is overtaking another car and is in your line. What would you doIm on my P2, Id probably stay in my lane and slow down so I dont hit the truck. Which isnt an option so Id say b. Did I get it right Steven writes. Did I get it right Its the RTA, flap knows. Quick question. Can I walk in and do this test, or do I need to book a day ahead I just came back from sitting the DQT test and I passed. This blog really helps http michael. It contains scenes that are in the NSW RTA test, even though the website is for SA. I completed the sample HPT questions on this website until I knew them back to front. Is there an Eye Test going from Green P2 to Open License, After passing DQTSo its just a computer test I was told it was a driving test. If its just a computer test like P2s then I think it should be easy. I got for mine in Dec. Hmmmm. writes. 1 question was like. A truck is overtaking another car and is in your line. What would you do Questions like this are crap. What lane am I and the truck in exactly If all vehicles are in the left lane car, truck, me first to last and the truck plans to overtake on the right, why exactly should I slow downAfter all I should already be 3 seconds behind. Fungus writes. Quick question. Can I walk in and do this test, or do I need to book a day ahead You can walk in and do the test if there are spare computers that have not been booked or taken. If in doubt, call your RTA and check beforehand. Is there an Eye Test going from Green P2 to Open License, After passing DQTI had an eye test, it was before the actual DQT test. Checklist for success Read through DQT handbook. Do some practice knowledge questions http www. Do some practice HPT http mylicence. Skim through http michael. By the way, dont take to heart the comments on the blog too much, as some posters have failed and will give you a false sense of anxiety. Try and focus on the posts where people have passed and are offering their advice instead. I only had 1 statistic question in the knowledge section Q. What is the likelihood that a pedestrian will be killed if hit in a 6. A. 7. 0In the hazard perception section, as has been already said, basically dont overtake or turn right, just relax on those questions. On the tap when to slow down questions, be vigilant and make use of your peripheral vision, you will generally need to tap more than once. Look out and slow down for Brake lights on vehicles. Side Streets. Street Signs. People walking by parked cars. People opening doors in parked cars. Pedestrians Old people and children in particular. Be weary of trucks and motorcyclists. Good luck to all those completing the DQT Just passed mine on the weekend. The video part was as stupid as usual and most of the questions were straightforward but there were three questions that tripped me up because I didnt see them mentioned anywhere and I must have missed them in the handbook What is the most common collision between a car and a motorcycle Options were running up the arse of the motorcycle, reversing into a parked one, driving across the line of the motorcycle and. Assumed it was driving across the line. When do most severe speed related crashes occur When do most crashes occur Options were time spans through the day, i. Hopefully someone finds that useful. Hmmmm. writes. I just went and sat the DQT test for a full licence. Did mine January this year.
