Oerlikon Taxi Driver Certification: BPT 121 Theory & Practical Tests Available
The training program takes enrollees through the Professional Passenger Transport BPT 121 certification process. The course, otherwise known as the ‘Taxi Test’, ensures that drivers meet the required standards of practice and theory knowledge to provide safe transportation services for the general public.

Any driver who is at least 19 years old and has kept a clean driving record in category B (vehicles weighing no more than 3,500 kg) for at least one year is eligible to take the course and apply for taxi certification. Fahrschule SULI Zürich will advise applicants on every phase of the BPT 121 process, including the identification documents required, medical suitability, and the advanced driving theory and practice requirements for public transportation providers.
Drivers wishing to attain taxi certification must pass an advanced theory test which differs significantly from standard driving theory examinations. A spokesperson says, “It covers questions on topics such as legally prescribed rest and working times, etc. Of course, our training professionals will offer you every possible support in this area too.”
The test has two parts – multiple choice questions and video clips to assess one’s hazard perception. Topics include health and safety, road procedures, customer care, mechanical knowledge, transporting vulnerable passengers, and safe vehicle loading alongside standard theory elements such as traffic signs and signals. A minimum score of 135 out of a possible 150 is required, so if they fail, applicants can resit the test.
Fahrschule SULI Zürich explains that candidates must also complete a permit application and pass an eyesight test at a registered optician or ophthalmologist. Forms must be submitted in person to the road traffic licensing office along with a color passport photograph and ID.
Once submitted, applicants will receive a health check request to be completed by a doctor of their choice who will forward the results to the road traffic office.
After the theory test, candidates undertake the practical driving exam that tests and assesses more than just vehicle control skills but also how calmly and comfortably the driver performs in traffic.
In addition to its taxi driver certification solutions, Fahrschule SULI Zürich also offers standard driving lessons, first aid courses, and control drive services.
