A look at the e.driver app – clear, easy to understand and optimally tailored to the theory test in Switzerland.
When is it permitted to take your hands off the steering wheel?
It is important to understand this rule thoroughly, both for the practical driving test and when studying for the theory exam. You may only release the steering wheel during gear shifting. Using a mobile phone while driving is strictly prohibited, and even for other actions—such as putting on sunglasses—you are not allowed to let go of the steering device.
Are passengers allowed to be transported in a trailer pulled by a car?
As a general rule, passengers may not be transported in a trailer pulled by a passenger car. Trailers are designed for goods, not people, and lack the safety features and restraint systems required for passenger transport. Only a few very specific exceptions exist, such as certain agricultural trailers under strict conditions. If you are preparing for the e.driver Swiss Driving Theory Test, you should know this important rule, as it is often misunderstood and plays a key role in overall road safety.
Are you allowed to let the engine warm up while idling in winter?
Many drivers let the engine idle in winter to warm up the interior or defrost the windows. However, this is not allowed. Idling unnecessarily increases pollution, creates noise, and can even harm the engine. Modern engines are designed to warm up efficiently while driving. If you are preparing for the e.driver Swiss Driving Theory Test, you should know that idling offers no technical benefit and is considered an offence. It is better to clear the windows manually and then set off gently.
