An emergency corridor, or 'Rettungsgasse', is a clear lane created by drivers on motorways and expressways during slow-moving traffic or a standstill. It allows emergency vehicles like ambulances, fire trucks, and police to quickly reach the scene of an incident.
An emergency corridor must be formed as early as possible whenever there is slow-moving traffic or a traffic jam on motorways, at the latest when traffic slows down to walking speed or comes to a standstill. This is compulsory, even if no emergency vehicle is yet in sight.
On a two-lane motorway, the emergency corridor must be formed in the middle, between the two lanes. Drivers in the left lane move as far left as possible, and drivers in the right lane move as far right as possible.
On a three-lane motorway, the emergency corridor must always be formed between the far-left lane and the lane immediately to its right (the middle lane). Vehicles in the far-left lane move to the left, and vehicles in the middle and right lanes move to the right.
Yes, forming an emergency corridor ('Rettungsgasse') is compulsory in Switzerland. Failure to do so can result in fines and can dangerously impede emergency services.
The emergency lane should generally not be used for driving unless explicitly indicated by overhead signals allowing its temporary use as a normal traffic lane. When forming an emergency corridor, vehicles should move towards the edges of their respective lanes, not into the emergency lane for driving purposes.
By completing Emergency Corridor, you will gain stronger rule knowledge, faster recognition of signs and situations, better decision making in traffic scenarios, and increased accuracy on exam style questions used in Switzerland. These outcomes directly support higher scoring exam performance.
