BDifficulty 2/5

Does a valid A1 licence authorise a motorcycle with a sidecar that meets the category’s limits?

Correct answer

Yes, if it meets A1 limits and your licence restrictions.

Yes, if it meets A1 limits: engine capacity up to 125 cm³, power up to 11 kW and power-to-weight ratio up to 0.1 kW/kg. Two years of A1 holding are not required. A1 also covers motor tricycles up to 15 kW, but a sidecar motorcycle is not thereby a motor tricycle; they are distinct categories. Observe restrictions stated on the licence.
