19/20 on signs (poorly worded answer choices, I didn't read it well enough)

Not sure I agree with the "collision" ones either.  in the 5 examples of left turners, the static photograph does not clearly indicate the situation.  In NO case is a left turn signal visible, and the camera angle does not allow a clear indication of what is going on.  These seem like more of a game of "where's Waldo" than a real risk perception test.

I know, because trying to gather excellent images to demonstrate these concepts is very difficult - I know - I've been doing the very same thing!  I think short vidwo clips would be FAR more clear, and would be more "real" too.

I have to agree with Teach, because I didn't do very well on the collision perception tests. They must be flawed in some way...  ::)
