practical test of driving in Zurich, any idea?

Hello all,

I have just registered my request to change my home country driving license to a Swiss one. I heard the practical test would be easier in small cities (e.g. Bulach, Regensdorf) rather than the Zurich city since there is no tram and so on there. I am wondering which city you would recommend in the zurich canton for the paractical test of driving. And do you know a great instructor to prepare me for the test? It would be great if you share your experiences. Thanks. Any other suggestion regarding the practical is more than welcome!

I may be wrong with this, but I don't think you get to chose. I would expect your test to be handled by one of the experts located at the StrassenVerkehrsAmt responsible for where you live (Zürich-Albisgüetli covers Zürich city), and the one testing you to decide the route ad hoc.

Makes sense to drive through Zurich if you live there 😀

Yeah better you get used to the trams, the roundabouts, cycling routes and crazy Manesseplatz

Not really. you can multiple choice. Zurich, Winterthur, Bulach and ect are included.

If you’re not that safe or a confident driver it’s going to be obvious wherever you have to drive...
