Trailer: B+E test preparation
Drivers who gained their licence after this date are limited to vehicles up to a maximum of 3,500KG authorised mass, towing a trailer up to 750KG, or a vehicle and trailer combination up to 3,500KG MAM - providing the MAM of the trailer doesn’t exceed the unladen mass of the towing vehicle. If you wish to tow a caravan or trailer combination which exceeds these weight limits, you will need to pass an addition driving test in B+E.
