C+EDifficulty 2/5

Does the D1+E licence you hold allow you to drive a bus intended for passenger transport with 17 seats, not counting the driver's seat, that has a non-light trailer attached?

Correct answer

No.

No. A D1 towing vehicle is designed for no more than 16 passengers in addition to the driver and is no longer than 8 metres. D1+E allows adding a trailer over 750 kg MAM but does not increase the bus’s authorised passenger capacity. A bus designed for 17 passengers in addition to the driver with a non-light trailer requires D+E. Travelling empty does not change its category.
