Correct answer

  • BNo.No.
Explanation

Under Article 4 of the General Driver Regulations, the B licence covers motor cars with a MAM of up to 3,500 kg. The only exception is certain alternative-fuel goods vehicles of up to 4,250 kg, for drivers who have held the licence for more than two years; that is why the question says 'as a general rule'.
