To pass the exam, you need to demonstrate the ability to safely operate a vehicle in various road conditions and environments. This includes city driving, highway driving, and always maintaining safety. You must have good observation skills, adjust your speed appropriately, read and understand traffic signs, and understand right-of-way rules. Additionally, you need to execute maneuvers such as emergency stops from 50 km/h, parallel parking, reverse parking, reversing over a longer distance, and U-turns. With our help, you'll gain the knowledge and skills necessary for success on your driving test.

In Switzerland, a practical driving test (Fahrprüfung) typically lasts between 45 to 60 minutes. During this time, the examiner assesses the candidate's driving skills, knowledge of traffic rules, and ability to handle various driving situations safely and confidently. The test includes tasks such as urban driving, highway driving, and specific maneuvers like parking, turning, and emergency stops.

In Switzerland, you can take the driving test multiple times, but there are specific conditions after multiple failures: First and Second Attempts: If you fail the driving test the first or second time, you can retake it after waiting for a month. Third Attempt: If you fail the test a third time, you must present a certificate from a qualified driving instructor stating that you have completed additional driving training before you can take the test again. Fourth Attempt: If you fail the test a fourth time, you are required to pass a driving aptitude test before being allowed to retake the practical driving test. Psychological Assessment: If you fail the driving aptitude test or the practical test again after the fourth attempt, you will need to undergo a driving psychology test to determine your ability to drive safely before you can take the test again. This process ensures that drivers are adequately prepared and assessed for safe driving practices​ (ch.ch)​​ (IamExpat)​​ (Expatica)​.
