Implementation of Victoria's new Hazard Perception Test.

In 1999, the Registration and Licensing Department of VicRoads commissioned a team led by ARRB Transport Research Ltd (ARRB TR) to update and extend the Hazard Perception Test (HPT). Professor Gitte Lindgaard and the Australian Council for Educational Research Ltd were sub-contracted by ARRB TR and contributed to a range of tasks within the project. The purpose of the present paper is to describe the methods and results of a major trial of the newly developed test items and test construction. The trial formed the basis of the final construction of the updated Hazard Perception Test. (Author/publisher) For the covering entry of this conference, please see ITRD abstract no. E206143.
