Show the correct answer
Correct answer
B. A moped.
Explanation
This question is about the vehicles you can drive with a category AM driving licence. You are allowed to ride a moped - answer B.
The Vehicle Drivers Act states that category AM entitles you to drive a moped and a light quadricycle, as well as a combination of such a vehicle with a trailer. A moped is a two- or three-wheeled vehicle with a combustion engine of up to 50 cm3 or an electric motor with a power of up to 4 kW, whose design limits its speed to 45 km/h. A motorcycle (answer A) is not covered by category AM - as a general rule it requires category A1, A2 or A, depending on its parameters. Not every quadricycle (answer C) is covered by category AM - it includes only a light quadricycle, and heavier or faster ones require category B1 or B. You can obtain a category AM driving licence from the age of 14.
