Swiss Theory F case studies

Swiss Theory F · Put your knowledge to work in context.

Category F is the Swiss driving licence category for motor vehicles with a maximum design speed of up to 45 km/h - in practice small motorcycles, mopeds and light motorised two-wheelers. Passing the theory examination is the first formal step before you can begin practical training in this category, and the result is tied to a cantonal learner permit. The theory test is delivered in the language of your canton, usually on a computer at the cantonal road traffic office, and it draws on the same national question catalogue used across all licence categories, filtered to the material that matters for slow two-wheelers. Expect questions on traffic law and priority, signs and markings, basic vehicle knowledge, hazard perception, concrete right-of-way situations and what to do at the scene of an accident. The Swiss Theory F case studies are 5 cases and about 4,038 words.
