Riding a Trike (License)
Bit of a daft question but i can't seem to make any sense of the law
I have a full car license from 1998 with B/B1/A/AM
Does this mean i can ride a trike without having to take any further tests? or is there a limit to the trike engine size?
I've been reading on the gov.uk website but i must be blonde as i cant understand it
Speed has never killed anyone. Suddenly becoming stationary... that's what
gets you.

i would also check to see if there is any one local that can mot it we get them and quads all the time and have to refuse them as we cant get the axle
on the rolling road (to wide) and the car garage cant put them on there ramp
one local owner has to travel 65 miles to have it done but he makes a day out of it and had the forsight to have it done in june

That is a good call as i didn't consider the MOT stations ability to carry out the test
I did see the Trike website regarding the licensing but that is a bit confusing too

Some information on the change in legislation, apparently the industry weren't even asked.

So does one not need to wear a helmet to ride them?
