Correct answer
The D.
D. An articulated bus is one vehicle; its articulated sections do not make it a bus towing a separate trailer. D1 does not authorise this passenger capacity. D+E applies to combinations with a trailer exceeding 750 kg maximum authorised mass. The ordinary D minimum age is 24, but CAP-related reductions and their conditions exist; 24 is not universal in all cases.
