Uppkörning Med f.d. Inspektör - Så Går Körprovet Till

[Auto-translated subtitles] How does the drive-up actually take place and how is it deemed approved?

Join a drive-up together with a student - and controller Rune.

I have previously worked as a traffic inspector - and I have sat in on 5,500 to 6,000 driving tests.

In order for you to understand what the controller is checking for - you will hear how Rune assesses different situations.

Then we approach a railway crossing.

You will see what mistakes the student makes.

Fabian forgets to put it in drive.

You will see what the student is doing right.

Thanked Fabian for handling it nicely.

In the end, you will see whether the student was passed - or failed.

Come along!

To get a Swedish driving licence, download the Trafiko app Then we'll go out into traffic, - you'll get to drive and I'll sit next to you - and watch your driving.

You will have to drive approximately 25-30 minutes.

Some mixed driving, city traffic, some country roads.

I will give you some different tasks during the drive.

You may be allowed to turn, park, reverse or the like.

Today it is you who drives - and you who make all the decisions independently.

Unlike when you practice driving, - then you might get a little help from your supervisor or traffic instructor.

But today you have to fend for yourself.

However, it may be that - if you find yourself in a very special situation - then I can step in and support.

It can be something that is difficult to practice during your training.

I will tell you where to drive.

I will ask you to turn left at intersections, or right.

I will ask you to follow signs towards different destinations, - it could be that we drive towards E4, the city centre, hospital, for example.

If I say "drive towards the center", then you continue to drive towards the center - until I say otherwise.

The same thing if I don't say where you are going at all, - then you continue to plan for driving straight ahead.

You will probably feel a little nervous at first, - but it will feel a little better after a while, - I promise, it usually is.

If you want, we can chat a bit during the drive, - but if you want me to be quiet, you can speak up.

Then feel free to have the radio on, it works perfectly.

That said, we'll be back here in between 25 and 35 minutes - and as soon as we get back, you'll know the results.

Okay exciting.

Do you have any questions? - No.

Is there something that feels unsafe?

No, it feels okay, - as good as it can feel before a drive-up, it's nervous.

It will feel better after a while.

Great.

No, I think I recognize all the levers and buttons.

I usually sit in about the same place.

What kind of car have you driven before?

I usually drive manual.

I've driven an automatic as well, - but mostly manual.

Most of the controls are there...

You can just take a look at it before, - so you know where the wiper function is, - direction indicators and shifter, - and all that kind of stuff so you're a little familiar with it.

Yes exactly. Because this is driven right?

Yes exactly.

Before we drive off, make sure you're seated properly - and that you're looking properly at the ways you need to do it.

Then when you're done with that - you can start up and then we'll hit the road.

Okay.

Before we got into the car, Fabian had to do a safety check - on the car's wheels and tires.

The safety check is part of the driving test - and it may count towards the overall assessment - of your driving.

When you take your driving test - the inspector will ask you to perform one or two parts - of the safety check.

If you discover any defects on the vehicle during the inspection, - you must tell the inspector about it.

You can ask the inspector for help - if there is any part of the security check that you cannot do yourself.

Also make sure to ask for help if you are above the car - and unsure of how, for example, to open the bonnet.

The purpose of the security check is to see if you know how to do - to check that a car that you are going to put into traffic is road-safe.

I can take the opportunity to say that - I am sitting here with a protocol.

I'm not writing any grading of your driving, - but if I make some markings, it's only because - I'm ticking off the points we've carried out during the driving.

So you don't have to think - if I have any secrets here.

When you're ready, drive out.

You must drive out that way.

I'm ready. - You are welcome.

You weren't from Uppsala?

No, I'm from Stockholm Okay, so you don't find so well here?

No, I have never driven a car in Uppsala.

Exciting. - Yes indeed.

It's a little extra nervous.

It's lucky that I tell you where to drive, - that you don't have to find it yourself.

Turn right here.

Then you turn directly to the left.

It will be like a u-turn.

Okay.

Then we'll start by going out of town.

Then you turn left here.

Here, Fabian drives in a fairly calm traffic environment, - not much that happens on the side.

There are no direct crossings.

There are some exits and such, but it seems pretty quiet here right now.

One thought with driving right here - is that you want to give the aspirant a fairly calm start to the driving test - to get into the driving and let go of their nervousness.

Then take the first exit at the roundabout here on the right.

Now we arrive at a roundabout - where Fabian should turn right.

Here the inspector looks at how the aspirant applies the rules.

It is the right of way for those traveling into the circulation, - how to adapt the speed to the circulation - and how to choose to continue entering later when the traffic permits.

On the country road out of Uppsala, out into the country, - then we end up behind two military vehicles that drive quite slowly.

They drive around 60, plus 60, - and the speed here is 80 km/h, the maximum speed limit.

So the inspector sits and thinks a little about how - the aspirant reacts to them driving so slowly.

Should he overtake or should he not overtake?

How does he assess this traffic situation?

The inspector doesn't mind if you can make a safe overtaking, - in this situation it's perfectly fine.

What the inspector also thinks - is that the aspirant does not know exactly where we are going, - how far we have to drive, - and therefore it can be difficult as a driver to know - if I have time to overtake or not.

It's a bit of an inspector's thoughts in a situation like this.

You will get some information from me now.

A little further ahead - there will be a sign that says Läby, - enter to the left.

You must take us in there on the way to Läby.

Then I gave Fabian instructions on where he should drive.

I have not said how he should do, - but this is something that an inspector, me in this case, - wants to see Fabian himself decide on.

I have given the instructions that there will be a road to the left towards Läby - and he is to take us into that road, - but I have not told him how to do it.

So here he has some freedom of choice - and I look at how he handles these different opportunities - that I've given him, to follow instructions.

Yes, here I see that Fabian chose to take the right instead of - to turn left as I asked.

My assessment is that there was some traffic behind us - and that Fabian simply wanted to make a safe turn - and chose to go right, - and hopefully turn around and go back.

Here I sit as an inspector and think about - how he intends to solve the turning situation, - how far does he intend to drive?

He can't drive any distance to turn around, - because somewhere around here I have to tell him - where he should turn and then there will be some kind of intervention.

So those are the thoughts that I, as an inspector, have here now.

Where does he turn?

When does he turn and how does he turn?

You said right.

I was just going to do one...

I said left. - Yes, left, exactly.

I thought I'd do a U-turn here.

Okay.

I'm not sure, - but I realized that it might be easier to drive in on the left directly.

Yes, but you can find a place to turn around, - then we will go to the right.

Yes, now Fabian has been inside and turned over a farm area - which was perfectly fine to use for that purpose.

What I look at as an inspector when he turns, - is how he plans it, the view behind - and what is happening around and how far does he drive to turn?

What I look at when we get out here, - we have a meeting, - but otherwise not that much happens, - so what I look at here is speed adaptation, - placement, how Fabian generally works with mirror routines and so, - if he's curious about what's going on behind the car and so, - it's something that many people might sometimes overlook, - what's going on behind?

An inspector, me in this case, - likes to see that the aspirant is curious about what is happening behind the car.

So there. Then we were back on track.

I thought it was a trick, left turn on the highway.

There was a car behind.

Then it will be straight forward here.

Then we have arrived at an intersection with an obligation to stop.

Obligation to stop is, as everyone hopefully knows, - a place where you are forced to stop.

The whole car, all four wheels must be stationary.

There is no requirement that you have time to count to three or something like that, - there are many who do that.

But if it feels safe then fine, inspectors buy it.

The important thing is that you know that you have to stand still when you have to stop - and while you are standing still, you look around - and look at what is happening on the road you have to cross.

Now we enter a slightly narrower, slightly crooked road - and here it is important that the aspirant knows how to position himself, - how to relate to other road users and oncoming vehicles.

I also have a thought that we go in right here, - because I will give Fabian a task to back off a little further forward.

I'll tell you a little more about that in a moment.

Then you follow the road a little to the left away from here.

Then you continue towards Läby.

Then you see that there is an entrance on the right there.

If you drive past it - and then you stop afterwards on the right-hand side, - then I will ask you to back in here then on the right.

So if you drive forward and stop at this reflex post approx.

So there, it'll be fine.

Now I want you to reverse the car - into the road to the right, - and then you can reverse so that we - come in a little way from this road.

So you stop there and let me know when you're done.

Then Fabian has received a task from me - that he should reverse onto a slightly smaller road to the right of us, - and I as an inspector look - not only that he can reverse the car - from point A which is on the road to point B which is inside on the right, - but I also look at how Fabian searches the area around the car.

Does he have an eye on the rearview mirror? Will there be any other traffic?

Does he care? Does he turn his head?

Does he just look in the rearview mirror or does he seem aware of - possible traffic around him?

Then, of course, I also check that he can actually handle the car.

It must not go too fast. It should not be uncontrolled.

It is not a rally competition.

Many people think that you should reverse very quickly, - but it is not necessary.

In this case, Fabian succeeds with a good reversal on the first attempt.

But if it was also the case that he had had to take it over - then it would have been perfectly fine from my perspective as an inspector.

That's good enough.

That went well, thank you very much.

Then we drive back left again.

We're going out to this road that we turned off from at the beginning.

Then we drive into town again.

A small detail before we drive on - is that Fabian forgets to engage the drive when he is going to drive on.

He intends to drive on with reverse, i.e. the reverse gear in, - but there is no danger, - as an inspector I don't make a big deal of it, - but he notices it himself and corrects the mistake - and drives on.

Then you get to see a bit of the country out here in Uppsala.

Right towards Uppsala.

Communication using the subway.

It's flexible.

Just outside Söder.

Now we are back to the same intersection - which Fabian drove straight ahead in earlier, - and there was quite a lot of traffic here, - and then as an inspector you want to see that Fabian has an eye - on all road users traveling on the road we are going to connect to.

I watch him adjust his speed - when he comes out on the road - and that he is actually curious, as I mentioned before, - about what is going on behind the car, - and Fabian glances in the rearview mirror - to see how it looks out there behind - and as an inspector it is something that I think is very important.

You must not build houses in any way that blocks the field of vision.

It is governed by law.

But then you have to stay on a certain side then?

In Uppsala you are not allowed to build in such a way as to block.

If someone is applying to build a tall house - so that it obscures the view.

To lighten the atmosphere at the driving test - the inspector - usually has a little small talk with the aspirant, - in this case me and Fabian.

We sit and talk about a few different things during the drive - to get a bit of a relaxed atmosphere.

But remember that it is you as the aspirant, - you the driver who decides how this should work, - because you have no obligation to the inspector - to keep a conversation going and be social.

There are no social requirements for a driving test.

If you want the inspector to be quiet, - then you have to be clear about saying so.

I know during many driving tests - where I didn't say a single sound more - than instructions about where to drive, - many people afterwards thanked me for being so quiet and calm.

So this is your choice.

You decide how the conversation should be during the driving test.

It's interesting.

It must be like that in many cities.

Yes, that's for sure.

You just continue forward towards Uppsala.

I'll tell you when to drive somewhere else.

Now we have left the rural environment.

We enter a bit more of an urban environment.

The speed goes from 80 to 60 to 40, - and during one occasion in the driving test, Fabian drives a bit too fast.

It's going slightly over the speed limit, - he fails to bring the speed down properly from 60 to 40.

I as an inspector can choose how to deal with this, - and since this is the first time it's happened in the driving test - and so far it has passed good, I'll leave it to that - and continue to see how Fabian handles speed adaptation - during the remainder of the driving test.

They can move.

Now we are approaching a signal-controlled railway crossing with barriers.

Since the barriers are up and the signal is off - perhaps many people think that it is just a matter of honking and driving.

But I, as an inspector, would like to see that you are prepared for - that there may actually be some type of traffic on the tracks.

I also look at how you cross the tracks, - partly that you look too closely - and look left and right, and adjust your speed, - but also not that it goes too slowly, - for a railway crossing you have to pass rather hastily.

You don't want to be left standing out there - in case something appears on the tracks or the barriers go down.

Can you take the first exit at the roundabout on the right.

Then we arrive at a stationary van - here along the right side.

As an inspector, I look at how Fabian adjusts his positioning, - his speed and his vision.

If you noticed - you also saw that the driver of the van waved and thanked - because Fabian handled it nicely.

Then you turn left here.

Then you turn left.

Here comes an interesting situation.

We have a person jogging across the street first here, - and Fabian has been tasked with turning left.

Here I am watching him manage the position in the intersection properly - but also that he pays attention to - how this person who is jogging moves, - and Fabian does that in a very good way.

He observes her and he lets her pass - before continuing to drive.

Then turn right into the first street.

Here we also approach a stationary vehicle - which has parked in a very inappropriate way.

Here the inspector looks at speed adjustment, - positioning, paying attention to what is happening behind the van, - and Fabian slows down in an exemplary manner - and continues his journey - planning to turn right as I have asked him to do.

It was a hearse.

Then it was right.

Now we enter a slightly narrower street - with parked vehicles along one side.

We also have unprotected road users in the form of a cyclist - who came towards us.

Here, as an inspector, I look at how to adjust the speed, - how to position oneself in relation to the parked vehicles, - that he does not drive too close and does not drive past too quickly, - but also has a readiness for - partly was this cyclist shall take the road, - but once we have passed it, what happens to the parked vehicles.

Is there anyone between them?

Is it someone who might be getting in or out of their vehicle - who suddenly throws open a door?

The inspector wants to see that you are not driving too slowly, - but also that there are excessively large distances - in neither one nor the other direction.

At the intersection, turn left.

I have given Fabian the task to - turn left at the intersection that comes further ahead.

What I pay attention to is how Fabian places himself in the intersection.

If he is aware of which rule applies.

If there is traffic coming in both directions on the street we are driving - or if he places himself too far to the left or in the middle or to the right.

The appearance of the intersection is what determines how to position yourself - and that is what the inspector focuses on in such a situation.

Do you like autumn and winter, or are you a summer person?

Then I probably could have liked winter too.

I agree with. Turn left here.

It's not just that it's cold, I can probably put up with that, - it's just that when you wake up, it's pitch black.

You said left, right? Yes exactly.

My biggest problem with this time of year is that - it's such a long period of cold and dark.

Summer is really short.

Then you turn right.

Take the right.

Wasn't it you who mentioned some marathon competition we should avoid?

Wonder if we've come across it?

This is probably it. Yes exactly.

Now we are on our way back to the Swedish Transport Administration's office - where we started the drive.

What occurs here is something that is very unique on a driving test.

I told you at the beginning before we left - that there might be situations - where you might need to help as an inspector, - and this could be a situation - where I could support Fabian.

Now it went well in any case, so I didn't have to do it, - because we have a running competition - and then there are guards directing the traffic - and telling when you can drive or not.

As an inspector, I look at - how the driver understands the rules around this very thing with guards.

What is the case when a guard is standing there compared to - when there is no guard and someone is going to cross the street?

It could not be avoided.

I'm glad I'm not the one running.

Then you continue towards the E4, Stockholm/Sundsvall.

When we have passed the parked vehicles here - we have a lane on the right - and then you might wonder why - Fabian doesn't go out in the right lane.

But Fabian is aware that this lane ends over there, - and therefore there is no point in crossing into the right lane.

If Fabian were to start behaving that way.

Changing lanes right, left, right, left all the time, - then it would rather raise some questions and concerns for me as an inspector.

Here we see that we are passing a school road.

Even though we're out driving today on a Saturday, - it's still interesting to see how Fabian handles the situation.

If he pays a little extra attention - and that he also understands that the road sign about speed 30 - actually does not apply today because it is a Saturday, - and that 30 km/h only applies Monday to Friday.

Now Fabian is on his way out onto the driveway and will connect to a 90-mile stretch.

Here, the inspector wants to see that you are working well - with speed adjustment and supervision.

If you look at Fabian, he turns his head well - and looks carefully at the traffic behind, - and adjusts his speed to the situation on the road - and continues nicely straight ahead.

Then take the first exit towards Gysinge.

Then you should continue driving towards 272 Gysinge.

272 is called the Road of the Times - for some reason.

Then take the first exit on the right at the roundabout.

So first on the left.

Now there are only a couple of hundred meters to go - before we are back at the Swedish Transport Administration where we started.

Here, the inspector must be prepared for - the aspirant Fabian, in this case, - to feel a little extra nerves, because he recognizes himself, - he knows that now I am on my way back - and now I will soon receive the decision from the inspector, - and that I, as an inspector, must actually be a little understanding - because the pressure and stress are higher in this situation -

than it may have been earlier during the driving test, - this is how you might want to, if necessary, support - and help a little the last ones meters - to the Swedish Transport Administration's parking lot.

Then you might recognize yourself here.

With relief.

We started over here, so we're nearing the end of our journey.

Then you continue straight in.

You see the arrows ahead, - straight ahead, the right arrow, that's where you should drive in.

Then you keep right and then you can choose one of the parking lots - where we stood from the beginning and park the car.

Then you can turn off the engine - and then you can give me the key.

Thanks so much.

So.

Yes, then I thank you very much for the ride - and your driving is approved.

Is that it? - Yes, good job.

Great. - This went well.

I put a cross there, that the drive is approved.

As you can see, we managed a lot of different things.

We managed to reverse and turn around.

A bit of junctions and a bit of freeway like too, - railway crossing, and overall you did a solid ride.

How nice.

May I just give a couple of things - for you to think about. - Yes, sure.

You will get out and drive yourself in the future - so it might be good to think a little about this.

There are a couple of situations - where you might not slow down properly - when you're coming from a higher speed, - and so it takes you a while to slow down.

You can be a little more careful there.

And one thing that you can have practical benefit from - when you drive in a roundabout that is a little bigger, - that has more than two lanes, - when you are waiting for your turn, that you get closer to the exit.

In circulation?

Yes, start looking over your shoulder a little earlier how it looks slanted behind - and what is happening behind, because if you look so late - as you are doing today, when you have to signal and drive out - then there are no margins , then you get to ride one more lap.

Of course, it's not the whole world.

The important thing is that you look - and you do that well, - and you show in other situations when you have to pass - stationary vehicles or do something else, - that you have a good lookout.

So the one-time thing that you are a little late in the circulation - do nothing in this situation.

Okay.

But something to think about when you drive yourself.

In practical terms, you can drive a car from today.

It is enough that you have your ID with you.

Then it takes a few days, then a piece of paper arrives in the mail - telling you where to pick up the real driver's license later.

Is it registered on my ID card?

Yes, so if you were to be stopped by the police, - on some routine check, I just hope, - then it's enough to show your identification - and say that you didn't have time to get your driver's license.

Then they understand.

Yes, how nice, how good.

Yes, good job! Good luck, see you in traffic.

Yes, I will wave when I'm in Uppsala.

Yes do it. Thank you.

Thanks so much.

Hello! My name is Rune Bohlin.

I'm the one who sat with Fabian today - when he was out doing his driving test.

Why I am sitting here today is due to - the fact that I have previously worked as a traffic inspector - at the Swedish Transport Administration's driving test in Uppsala, - and there I have administered, as it is called, - I have sat in on approximately 5,500 to 6,000 driving tests - for authorization b, which is the same as passenger car.

So I have a very large experience and knowledge of - sitting with when someone who is going to get a driver's license comes to the Swedish Transport Administration - to get their driver's license.

Based on that competence and experience - I sat and watched Fabian's driving today.

As you remember, the drive was approved.

I thought I'd go over a bit of what we've done today during the driving test.

What types of traffic environments we have driven in, - why I have chosen those environments, - how I have looked at different things that Fabian has done - while driving - and why I have ultimately judged the way I have.

If you are really observant and watch this film - you can probably see things that - maybe they could do even better.

No one drives perfectly, not even me, believe it if you want, - but I also make fewer driving mistakes when I'm out in traffic.

We started here at the Trafikverket in Uppsala, - in their parking lot, - and we set out on road driving quite immediately.

I asked Fabian to follow signs to the left towards a place called Läby.

There was traffic behind, so Fabian made that assessment - that it might be safer to drive right instead and turn - and then go back towards Läby.

He made a perfectly fine judgment in that.

Had he chosen to turn left there with the car behind - I would have bought that too depending on how he had performed the turn.

You would like to see that there is a view backwards.

What happens to the road users behind - when I plan for a left turn on a country road?

If you don't have that supervision, - then it will be difficult to like what the aspirant does during the driving test.

But here Fabian made a choice. He did absolutely correctly.

He didn't go too far when he was going to turn, - because it's also a problem sometimes - that the person who goes to turn somewhere else - goes and goes and goes and never turns, - so for a while I thought about how far Fabian would drive.

But he didn't drive too far, - he found a place where he could turn around - and then he took us towards Läby.

Then he crossed the road and we entered a slightly smaller road - where he had to reverse.

The reverse went well, he had good control of the vehicle.

He had a good view all around and in mirrors when he backed up, - so there were no problems. Then we drove into town again.

Whoever was paying attention maybe...

because this is what I'd like to address, - whoever was paying attention as we came into town - perhaps noted on the speedometer - and road signs that it was going a bit fast at one point.

I think Fabian was around 55 on a 40 stretch.

Seen if you only look at that situation - you might think that you cannot approve of that.

It was about 15 km/h over the speed limit - and that's completely true, but you always have to look at a drive in context.

It is always the context that decides.

If you look at the whole of Fabian's driving today - he is very good at keeping an adapted speed.

He slows down in many situations where it is a bit critical.

There are stationary vehicles, unprotected road users, - it's a Fonus hearse, - not the kind of car you drive dead people in, - but a car belonging to a funeral company, - which is very strangely positioned along a street.

Fabian slow down in a good way - and drive calmly and safely and safely here.

And he does that during the entire drive.

Then you can see this speeding violation - which was heading into town in a different context - and you can see it as a one-time thing.

And instead of saying that this cannot be approved, - you can send it along as an important thing to think about - later when you are out driving with your own driver's license.

Speaking of city driving, - there were a lot of unprotected road users, - pedestrians, cyclists, in traffic today - and there Fabian has done a good job and had good supervision.

He has stopped when someone wants to cross.

He has had a standby when he thinks there is someone - who would like to cross or come out into the street.

And he has made a very solid contribution in that area.

The same when it comes to passing stationary vehicles, - he has also done it very well.

Railroad crossing is something he has practiced.

Many people think that as soon as the barriers are up - and the signals aren't flashing red, it's just a matter of honking and driving, - but that's not actually the case.

On a driving test and also otherwise when you are out driving, - it is always important to be vigilant.

Is there a train coming or not?

It happens every year that someone is killed at a railway crossing - due to barriers and signals not working as they should.

It's not too exhausting to glance over the track - before you go over anyway, - regardless of whether you now in the vast majority of cases - can rely on both barriers and signals.

I have looked at - some of the most important things that you look at during a driving test.

It is that you can adapt your driving style - based on the situation you get into.

One situation is never exactly like the other, - so therefore you have to be able to adapt.

You must be able to make risk assessments.

Fabian made a risk assessment out on the country road - when he was going to turn left off it, - it was perfectly fine, it was good.

He assessed risks in several other situations today in city driving - and he also showed a good interaction, - that is, - he showed that he can function as part of a group, - all road users are in some way part of a context - and then you have to be able to function in this group.

You can't drive in a way that goes head to head, - completely the opposite of everyone else, so that you stand out in that direction, - but you have to somehow try to flow in with what the others are doing.

Fabian shows a very good interaction today in his driving.

So it is no wonder that the result was a passed driving test.

We even got to do some sort of marathon today - which was a little odd, there are guards there - who directed traffic and put out their red flag - when it was time to stop - and lifted it and waved the traffic on - when it was time to drive, - so it was a bit of an odd thing we had to participate in today.

That is something that very rarely happens on a driving test, - but Fabian handled that matter well as well.

Yes, this is how a driving test goes.

It is often mixed with a bit of road - or road-like driving.

It's city traffic, - you try to make it so that you can - drive in slightly different traffic environments, a little city traffic, - slightly hidden narrow intersections, parked vehicles, - it can be a reverse, a U-turn, a parking lot - or a similar task - and the time a driving test is -

usually between 25 and 35 minutes.

Today it was slightly longer than 35 minutes, I think.

Maybe because it was a bit tricky - when we drove into the urban environment here today - with the marathon among other things.

So now you've got a little insight into how an inspector works - during a driving test.

How an inspector assesses a driving test - and why you can assess in one way - and why you don't need to fail - on all the different things that you could do better.

One more thing too.

You who remember what I said to Fabian - when we came back here after I told you that the drive was approved, - I also mentioned this with the supervision, - and the planning when you have to change lanes in a roundabout.

Here is also something that could lead to a fail - if this had been repeated in more situations.

For example, when we came down this driveway-like place - after we had gone out of circulation.

There, Fabian looks very well and he gives signs in time, - he shows that he knows he has to look too properly.

He can interact with the vehicles that are beyond us - and that are already out on this slightly faster - freeway-like road.

So again, it's the situation that decides.

It is the whole that ultimately becomes a part on which the result is based.

Yes.
