If you click too early you will be outside the scoring zone, it doesn't prevent you from clicking again, but if the software suspects you are just rhythmically clicking then it will score you zero for that hazard.

Do get some practise/demo CD ROMs before taking the HPT. It is essential to know how the 'game' works - the sort of time at which a hazard changes from a potential to a developing hazard, and how often you can click without being disqualified. Being able to recognise hazards on the road has virtually nothing to do with passing this test!
