The test lasted for around 35 min or so. In the beginning, I was explained that there will be certain parameters on which I will be judged. The instructor suggested me to drive my best and if I commit any mistakes during the test then to put them behind and focus on the rest of the test. He said that he will give me instructions well in advance so I will have enough time to plan as we drive. He also suggested that I can clarify and ask again if I did not understand some instruction.
We went in the car, the instructor was patient enough to let me do all the settings with the seat and mirror. Then we started to drive out of the parking lot and I wasn’t fully satisfied with my seat setting so I asked if it was possible to stop for a sec and it was totally alright to do so.
The route was straight ahead as we left the parking lot from Trafikverket, it is a 30 kmph road so be careful. Then we took a left and another left on Smedbyvägen which is a 50 kmph road. That was a tricky moment in the early part of my exam where we could hear fire brigade siren from somewhere behind us. I crossed the traffic signal and saw in the rear view mirror that the fire brigade truck was behind us but it indicated left and turned at the signal. I mentioned this to the examiner so he felt that I saw it and was careful enough if we had to give way to it.
Then we took a right turn in a small roundabout at Bollstanäs towards another 30 kmph area where he took me to a parking lot and let me choose the spot and type of parking. Then we went out again on the 50 kmph road. From there we entered the Bean-shaped roundabout and I was asked to go to E4 Stockholm. While entering on E4 (175), there was a lot of traffic so make sure to keep enough distance from the cars in front and behind you. Also, make sure you dont overtake any car in the left lane as I assume you will be driving in the rightmost lane.
Then I was asked to follow the signs to Enköping. It meant that I had to take the next exit (174). Then I took left in the roundabout. After that I was asked to follow the signs to Blissingen. That means I had to take the next exit. We did reverse around the corner there. Then went back towards Rotebro. While approaching the same rounadbout, I got the instructions to go to E4 Arlanda. Again lot of traffic while merging, make sure to indicate well in advance.
Then I was asked to follow the signs to Upplands Väsby S. That meant taking the next exit. On the exit, I was told to go to Johhaneslund. Then we went back to Traffikverket. While entering the parking lot, there is a very narrow path and I saw an oncoming car so had to move close to the kerb to let it pass. Be careful in such tight situations. Finally, I was asked to front park the car.
Hope this helps
Wish you all the best with your exams!
