Kernrechtsfrage
Whether a control ride may be ordered under Swiss road traffic law despite not being expressly mentioned in the SVG or VZV.
Extrahierter Entscheid
Yes. The control ride is permissible as a practical, abbreviated form of driving examination under Art. 14(3) SVG, applied by analogy to the new driving test regime.
Extrahierte Begründung
Art. 24 VZV is treated as a special case of Art. 14(3) SVG. Because a control ride is a lesser intrusion than a full re-examination, it is allowed under the in maiore minus principle. It is suitable where doubts concern driving technique and traffic behavior, but a full examination would be disproportionate.
