C+EDifficulty 2/5

Does the C1E driving licence authorise you to drive a truck with a maximum authorised mass (MAM) exceeding 16,000 kg, towing a non-light trailer?

Correct answer

No.

No. In this case, C1+E permits a C1 towing vehicle with a MAM no greater than 7,500 kg, a trailer over 750 kg, and a combined MAM no greater than 12,000 kg. A lorry over 16,000 kg already exceeds those limits. That lorry with a non-light trailer requires C+E and any other applicable requirements; turning 21 does not itself expand a C1+E licence.
