What is the risk perception test?

What is the risk perception test?

The risk perception test (also known as the GOCA Risk Perception Test or hazard perception test) is a computer test in which you must recognise dangerous situations in road traffic. It is part of the practical test for a category B driving licence in Belgium.

Important: the test assesses your hazard perception — not your reaction time and not your knowledge of the rules of the road. You view the situation through the eyes of a driver, complete with speedometer, indicators and mirrors.

You see 5 short video clips of about 30 seconds each. After each clip, you get a question with 4 possible answers, of which at least 1 and at most 3 can be correct.

The test procedure is carefully organised. Here is everything step by step:

1
Twee testfilmpjes als warming-up
Voor de echte test begin je met twee voorbeeldfilmpjes. Dit zijn geen echte examenvragen — ze helpen je vertrouwd te raken met het systeem en de manier van kijken.
2
5 filmfragmenten van ±30 seconden
Je bekijkt 5 realistische verkeersfilmpjes vanuit het standpunt van de bestuurder. De situaties bevatten kwetsbare weggebruikers, kruispunten, onverwachte manoeuvres en zichtbeperkingen.
Per filmpje ±30 seconden
3
Vraag met 4 antwoordopties — 15 seconden
Na elk filmpje verdwijnt het beeld en verschijnen 4 antwoordmogelijkheden. Je hebt exact 15 seconden om te antwoorden. Antwoord je niet op tijd? Dan telt het als fout.
15 seconden antwoordtijd
4
Meerdere juiste antwoorden mogelijk
Per vraag kunnen minimum 1 en maximum 3 antwoorden correct zijn. Je moet alles aanvinken wat je hebt gezien als potentieel gevaar — maar wees voorzichtig met gokken.
5
Score: minimum 6 op 10
Je totaalscore wordt berekend via het giscorrectiesysteem en omgerekend naar een score op 10. Je slaagt bij minimaal 6 op 10.
Minimum 6/10 vereist

📖

Kijk niet reactief

Scan bewust de volledige beeldinformatie: niet enkel het centrale beeld, maar ook spiegels, voetpaden, zijstraten en achtergrond. Gevaar komt vaak van de rand van het beeld.

Stap 1
🎯

Klik enkel wat je écht herkende

Fout antwoord = −1 punt. Gokken is de snelste manier om te zakken. Klik enkel de gevaren aan die je bewust hebt gezien in het filmpje — bij twijfel: niets is beter dan fout.

Stap 2
🔍

Oefen op 15-secondentempo

Je hebt maar 15 seconden na het filmpje om te antwoorden. Wie dat tempo niet kent, raakt in paniek. Oefen met de timer aan zodat de druk geen verrassing is op de examendag.

Stap 3
⏱️

Oefen met gevarieerde situaties

Kruispunten, voetgangers, fietsers, snel afremmen, zichtbeperkingen, nacht en regen — elk situatietype heeft zijn eigen kijkpatroon. Hoe meer variatie je oefent, hoe sneller je gevaar herkent.

FAQ – Risk Perception Test

FAQ – Risk Perception Test

Is the hazard perception test compulsory for a category B driving licence in Belgium?

Yes. The hazard perception test is compulsory in Flanders (compulsory since 2017), in the Brussels-Capital Region (compulsory since 2018) and in Wallonia. It is part of the practical driving test for category B driving licences. Without the hazard perception test, you may not take the practical driving test.

How does the hazard perception test work?

You watch 5 video clips of around 30 seconds each. After each clip, you get a question with 4 answer options (at least 1, at most 3 correct). You have 15 seconds to answer. Correct answer = +1 point, wrong answer = −1 point, nothing ticked = 0 points. Your total score is converted into a score out of 10. Minimum 6/10 to pass.

What if you do not pass the hazard perception test in Flanders?

In Flanders, the practical driving test is not stopped if you fail the hazard perception test. You can still take the road test. You are assessed on the overall result of both tests. In Brussels, it works differently: failing the hazard perception test means you immediately fail the entire practical driving test.

How should you best prepare for the hazard perception test?

By practising with realistic video situations — not by cramming the Highway Code. Train your observation pattern (mirrors, side streets, pavements), practise to a 15-second rhythm and click only what you have consciously recognised. With RAPP, you practise with situations at GOCA exam level.
