In Sweden, driving is a rite of passage for many teenagers, and for good reason!
While the legal age to drive a car is 18, you only need to be 15 to legally drive a tractor. In this video, REV explores the unique loophole that allows Swedish teens to modify cars and register them as tractors, giving them access to the open road at an early age.
There's a catch, though – they can only drive up to 30 km/h. Join us on a trip to Arvidsjaur as we dive into the EPA-Tractor and A-Tractor phenomenon and discover why it's a significant part of Swedish car and mobility culture. Don't miss out on this fascinating insight into teenage driving in Sweden!
