Si estando en posesión del permiso B conduce un camión que tiene la MMA para dicho permiso, ¿Le afecta esta señal?

If you hold a B licence and drive a lorry whose MAM is within the limit for that licence, does this sign apply to you?

  • ASí, pero únicamente cuando la MMA sea el doble de la tara.Yes, but only when the MAM is twice the unladen weight (tare).
  • BSí.Yes.
  • CNo.No.
Show answer

Correct answer

  • CNo.No.
Explanation

This is the no-overtaking sign for lorries, which only applies to those with a maximum authorised mass of more than 3,500 kg. A lorry that can be driven with a B licence does not exceed that mass, so the sign does not apply to it.
