Something you see that hasn't happened, but may well happen.
For instance; lets say a group of several children are playing on a green and a ice cream van parks on the other side of the green on a busy main road? Whats likely to happen? Yep! if you thought the children may run over to it and attempt to cross that main busy road little Billy is going to run straight out without looking that's a developing hazard, something that might happen but hasn't quiet developed although you visualise it as you drive along the road. best of luck on your theory.

Before the real Hazard perception test begins you have a tutorial which shows what you need to do for the test, and after,if required, you can repeat this tutorial one more time.
The test requires you to spot the hazards in the clips by clicking on the mouse button as soon as you see the hazard develop. The earlier you spot the hazard the higher your score will be. A Hazard is anything that could cause you, the driver to change speed or direction.
Thus a developing hazard is one that could potentialy cause the driver to change speed or direction e.g. people approaching a zebra crossing. Children at the side of a road.
There are many free on-line sites that you can test yourself on.

Have you seen a demo of the hazards part of the theory test?? It's like a video, and you have to click on the hazard when you see it. So, somthing like a van pulling out of a junction when you're on the main road, a child near the road, a bush in front of a sign...you have to be really fast at clicking on them, but thats the kind of thing you're looking for. Anything that could be a danger to you in a car.
Good luck with the test!
I hope you're in the UK, 'cause that's what this answer refers to!

I did my theory test a few weeks ago. You will see a video clip of say a pedestrian so you click, as it develops, eg, walks out onto the road you click again. you get shown a demo & are able to have a practise.
There are some really good websites that are really helpful

You spot a hazard before it takes place and before it develops.
E.g. If a lorry is joining the motorway and there is a car in front of you that will need to change lanes or slow down.

It's a potential hazard that could become a worse situation (I think). Like a lorry reversing backwards out onto a main road.

a developing hazard is a potentialy tricky situation which requires you to take the necessary and appropriate action to avoid, such as slow down and be ready to stop if necessary

i did not take a theory test because iam 40ish but one would assume that a developing hazard is one that hasn't happened yet but you can see that it is going to

Snow falling on the roadway. When it just starts raining.
Anything that is just starting, and you can tell that if it continues then it will cause a problem. good luck.

not being rude but if you are asking the question should you really be taking the test
