    Default Green P's

    Hi all, I was just wondering what you have to do to get your greens in NSW. I'm going for them the sarvo but should probably know what I'm doing?

    All you have to do is tap the screen when u see a hazard (ie person opening a door, car braking, children on the side of the road, ect) its really easy and doesnt take long.

    hey man did mine just the other week
    there is a total of 15 questions

    just ones like sitting at traffic lights and you hit the screen if you should go, or don't touch the screen if you think you should wait really simple.

    and the rest are just driving down roads (residential areas) just keep your eyes peeled on the sides of the roads for anything backing out of a driveway ect.
    you should be fine.

    Yep, its pretty easy. However the first practice question caught me out (when some crazy bitch with a pram turns in front of your car), but after that you get the hang of it.

    Yeah, but it's sneaky... they throw things at you designed to catch you off guard.

    Just make sure your reaction time is spot on when a 'hazard' presents itself, click on the screen straight away. you shouldnt have to much of a drama as it isn't that difficult of a test.

    hopefully it isnt as grainy as the vic p's hazard perception test. you cannot make out anything on that thing.
    (its worse then the old windows 98.. and we have a computer with that at home!)
    how about we make the pedals out of sticky rubber and the shoes with steel spikes. at least my shins would like that
