All B licence questions · DGT question bank

An ambulance without a trailer has a MAM of up to 3,500 kg and is built for no more than eight passengers besides the driver. It is not on an urgent service. Which licence category is the minimum required by those vehicle characteristics?

Correct answer

Category B.

Category B, because its maximum authorised mass and seating capacity fit that category. Use MAM, not its current actual weight, and exactly 3,500 kg is included. Category D covers vehicles built for more than eight passengers besides the driver, and A covers motorcycles. A driving licence does not replace other professional requirements that may apply to the job.
