Hi,

I have had a search of the site and cannot find the answers. After being confused by other forums.

My Daughter has a standard car license, passed in 2007 UK.

What is her combined car + trailer/Caravan weight please?

IF anyone knows !

I believe that the 8250kg limit only applies to those who under grandfather rights also have a C1 licence because they passed their test before 1997. A Category B licence always restricts one to a 3500kg towing vehicle and such vehicles can only tow a trailer of no more than 3500kg.
