Questions Learners Have About Winter Driving Safety

Find answers to the most common queries learners have when practising Winter Driving Safety, including how questions match the official theory exam in Sweden, how scoring works, and how this practice improves exam readiness.

What are the main dangers of snowbanks in Swedish winter driving?

Snowbanks can conceal ditches, curbs, or other obstacles, making road edges unpredictable. Driving too close can lead to getting stuck, damaging the vehicle, or losing control, especially on narrow or unfamiliar roads.

How should I react if my car gets stuck in snow?

Remain calm and avoid excessive wheel spin. Try to gently rock the car back and forth using low gears, or clear snow around the wheels. Spinning wheels rapidly can dig you deeper into the snow or ice.

Is it always safe to stop on the shoulder during winter?

No, stopping on a snowy shoulder can be dangerous due to reduced visibility, hidden obstacles, and the risk of getting stuck. It's generally safer to find a designated lay-by or a wider, clear area whenever possible.

Why is clearing my windows and lights extra important in winter?

Proper visibility is crucial in winter. Snow and ice can quickly obscure your windshield, side windows, mirrors, and lights, significantly reducing your ability to see and be seen. Always ensure all glass and lights are completely clear before and during your journey.

What's the best way to prevent getting stuck near snowbanks?

Maintain a safe distance from snowbanks, especially on rural roads or when parking. Drive slowly, anticipate hidden edges, and if you need to turn in a tight space, assess the area for potential hazards obscured by snow before proceeding.

Does spinning the wheels faster help get a car unstuck from snow?

No, spinning the wheels faster is generally counterproductive and can make the situation worse. It heats up the tires, melts the snow into ice, and often digs the wheels deeper. Gentle, controlled movements are more effective.
