2023 Annual Assessment - Headlamp Aim

I think I may have had he same question, I felt the same that there was 2 possible correct answers, and of course I picked the wrong one.

Image # 5

Same as previous

A flat top or other alternative headlamp dipped beam pattern is acceptable as long as all of the beam upper edge, including any ‘peak’ is contained within the appropriate tolerance band but is a pattern you have not seen in the Manual.

Pass, fail, incorrect beam pattern, beam image cannot be tested ?

i printed out the headlight aim and read out 3/4 times and have it handly to check when the quistion comes up i got 93% so it cant be that hard just go through the section its on for this year and look on this site for tips

What do you see for image 5. Do you see a flat topped beam with a peak, or a kick up to the left.

Wrong !

stealth pointed out in his first post above in bold the manual criteria. The image posted that I commented on DOES NOT contain ALL the upper edge and any peak within the tolerance bands. The MOT manual does not have the current training/exam images in for reference to. The training material should not contain information that is not first published in the MOT manual. We test to those standards only. 

No wonder vehicles on the roads dazzle oncoming drivers now more than ever. nearly every week now I'm seeing cars having been involved in accidents locally. This training material is becoming more of a joke every year now. I've never seen any images like those on vehicles ever in the last 23 years more. To me they are made up gimmicks put in the material to keep the pass marks low and justify some testers failing to keep in the scheme. They are a joke. 

Dynamo you are right I to have never seen a beam image
Like a spider crawling over the lens
It’s all a farce.

Like or dislike, agree or disagree..these are the kind of questions you will have to deal with in the current annual assessment so live with it.

It might help come March when the lastminute.com members get around to making a start.

Image 5 & 6....start thinking about beam kickup.
