Perhaps because the driver is on their own, rather than supervised? Why do you think it is?

HP goes some way towards that.

The challenge is whether 'that' learning can be incorporated into 'L' training and testing (because if it isn't tested then it's unlikely to be trained)?

I could find you research to show that introduction of the HPT resulted in IIRC an 11% reductions in crashes.
As for my views on the HPT . . . FWIW I'm not a fan of its format and marking.
