How should I behave in this situation?

Many driving test questions focus on how to react in specific traffic situations. One common example is: What should you do when approaching a line of vehicles on a fast-moving road?

In such cases, it is crucial to immediately reduce your speed to maintain the greatest possible distance from the queue. Equally important is switching on the hazard warning lights to alert the traffic behind you — a key point often highlighted in driving test questions.

How much does a driver’s license cost in Switzerland?

In Switzerland, obtaining a driver’s license is quite expensive compared to other European countries. The average cost ranges between 2,500 and 4,000 CHF. The price can vary depending on the number of driving lessons you take, the canton you live in, and the driving school you choose. Good preparation can save you both trouble and money. If you want to get ready for your driving test questions online, we recommend our proven e.driver learning program, where you’ll find plenty of practice questions, theory lessons for revision, and many useful features.

What should I do if I see wild animals on the road?

If you see wild animals on the road, you must immediately brake, switch to low beam headlights, and use your horn. Wild animals are especially common at dusk or during the night. If an accident involving these animals occurs, you must notify the authorities immediately. Taking injured or dead animals with you could make you suspicious of poaching. Also, pay attention to road signs that warn of the danger of wild animals on the road.

What is the minimum distance to keep behind emergency vehicles in operation?

If you are driving behind a fire truck, police car or ambulance, you must keep a minimum distance of 100 metres when the vehicle is in operation. You can recognise an emergency by the flashing blue light and the siren. But why is this rule so important? The reason is that someone who follows too closely might also ignore traffic rules such as speed limits or rights of way – even though, unlike emergency services, they are not entitled to do so.
Anyone studying for their driving test questions will find it easier to learn when the content is clearly explained. That’s exactly what our e.driver learning program offers: easy-to-understand explanations for many test questions – and of course in the theory section as well.
