Trailer Towing Lessons in Killarney and Tralee, Kerry.
Heads up, towing with a regular driver’s license (Category B) might not be enough!
Think your car license lets you tow anything as long as the total weight stays under 3,500kg? Think again! Here’s why:
Category B has a weight limit for the car AND trailer combined. It’s not just about the total weight of everything you’re hauling.
Your car and trailer likely have their own weight limits (Gross Vehicle Weight or MAM). Even if they seem light on their own, adding them together might exceed the combined limit for your license.
Here’s the breakdown:
Your average SUV, even though it might weigh 1,700kg empty, probably has a maximum weight limit (MAM) of around 2,600kg.
Your horsebox, despite weighing 900kg, might have a MAM of 2,500kg (check the plate on the trailer).
Adding those up, even with an empty trailer, puts you over the 3,500kg limit for a Category B license!
This applies to car transporters and other large trailers too. Caravans, however, usually have lower weight limits.
The good news: You can still tow a trailer with your regular license! Just make sure:
It’s a single-axle trailer with GVW 750KG .
Most likely a very small single axle trailer
