How do car drivers in snowy, icy countries like Sweden learn to face the tough wintry road conditions? ❄️🚗
 
In Sweden, people learning to drive have to do skid pan training – ’halkbana’ in Swedish – in artificial slippery conditions. It’s part of a risk awareness course that you are required to complete before you can pass your driving test and get your driving licence. 🚘
 
During the training, the learner driver is put in staged dangerous situations like skidding at different speeds to become aware of some of the real-life challenges on the road. Some training centres even offer a car roll-over simulator and a moose crash simulator! 🦌🚙
 
The training programme also covers how weather, speed and factors like fatigue 😴 or alcohol 🍷 affect driving.
 
What do you think of this hands-on approach to driver’s training? 👆
