We share mountain roads with many others: postbuses, motorhomes, cyclists, hikers. A quick greeting, a defensive manoeuvre, a little patience – composure shows in how you deal with others.

Courtesy on the pass

  • Postbuses have priority: On Swiss mountain postal roads, special consideration applies – listen for the three-tone horn.
  • Overtaking cyclists: With plenty of distance, and only where you can see clearly.
  • Stay calm: A motorhome in front of you isn't an opponent, it's a reason to take a break.

Calm in the mountains can be trained. You'll find suitable coaching offers here.
