    right i want to sort this out once and for all!

    i keep getting told that i can't ride a ped after my CBT is up, even if i passed my driving test before the 2 years was up.
    and then i get told that i can ride without CBT, because i've got a car license and that includes it.
    and then i get told that i can't unless i passed my test before 2001.
    and then i get told by a mate that it say's on the back of his CBT certificate:
    this certificate also validates, for the life of the licence, the full moped entitlement granted with a full car licence issued in respect of a practical car test passed on or after 1 febuary 2001 if either; the car test is passed within 2 years of this certificate being issued or the training course was completed after the car test was passed!

    and i rang up DVLA twice a few weeks back, and they told me i can't, and i can't merge my CBT with my driving license...so my only option is to keep retaking my CBT :confused:arc:


    then on my driving license my categories are....B, B1, f,k,p

    i researched and found that p= moped.....

    which means i can ride a moped.... :rofl:

    anyone know any real answers? ....im sick of hearing contradicting pieces of information....even from official sources and just want a final answer...

    can i ride my ped, now that my CBT is over, but i have a full car license which i obtained during the length of my CBT entitlement?


    cheers for any info!

    you need a cbt to drive a scooter but police hardly ask

    if youve passed your driving test before i think its feb 2001 you drive round without passing a cbt and no loser plates;)

    rite a cbt lasts for 2 years

    when your liscnece runs out it is obv invalid which means a re take is rquiered OR

    you can take a full bike test liscence etc ..

    which means you will be restricted to 33bhp ;)
