Test applicants will be expected to be able to apply appropriate hazard and detection responses to all assessable tasks without explanation of what is required by the testing officer. You should practise describing hazards aloud until you can confidently and clearly describe the hazards you are looking at and what you are doing in response to them. It is a good idea to ask a friend or relative who is an experienced driver to help you practise. That person should sit in the front passenger seat and play the role of the testing officer while you drive. You will be asked to perform a number of tasks and to observe and remember the hazards you see as you perform each task.
Some examples of hazards are:
other vehicles (including vehicles approaching from behind)
children playing on the footpath
pedestrians animals not on a leash
cyclists.
Did my full license test about two months ago. And they asked me 8 times about hazard identification. And i asked the guy at VTNZ there is any chance you dont do the hazard identification at full license and he said "No, hazard identification part is compulsory and you have to do it during your full liciense test".
