MAM) with a trailer in excess of 750kg MAM.
Driver who passed their Category B test before January 1997 already have
Category C1+E on their driving licence, BUT are limited to a COMBINED vehicle

1997 will have to pass a Category C1 test
before being permitted to undertake Category C1+E.
Passing a Category C1+E test will increase the COMBINED vehicle and trailer
limit to a MAXIMUM of 12 tonnes. There are weight, combination and age
restrictions applied.
