The hazard perception test was a great addition in my opinion.
(Basically a video plays and you have to press a button when something dangerous has happened).
I passed my driving test 30+ years ago and then took the HPT as part of a motorcycle test 15 years later.
Paying attention (to the kid bouncing a ball at the side of the road, to the cyclist when it's windy weather etc) is a key part of road craft and I hope this made it much clearer with some (contrived) examples. TBH I just wish they let you click earlier (for _potential_ threats - i.e. before they step into the road, not just afterwards).
