When do I need a truck driving license for a pick-up?
Hi, I'm considering purchasing the "new" Ford F150 Raptor R. My question is, do I need a C license to drive this vehicle, or is a "standard" B license sufficient? And is there a difference between the truck and car registrations? Would I be allowed to drive the vehicle with a "B" license as a truck?
Thanks in advance!
If this weighs more 3.5 tons, it’ll be fine.
Okey, thank you
Up to 3.5 t = B
3.5 – 7.5 t = C1
> 7.5 t = C
Unfortunately, most of the answers here are at least misleading. > 3,5t Total permissible mass (see papers) or soon. also more than in https://www.adac.de/verkehr/rund-um-den-fuehrerschein/fuehrerscheinaenderungen-2024/#class-b-weight limit described, you need a truck driver license.
Notification
With the B-guide ticket you can drive every two-track car up to 3500 kg. Does it matter whether it is approved as a truck or as a car? Only intentionally, on Sundays and holidays, trucks must not pull trailers, regardless of weight!
Over 3500 kg hold a C-guide certificate.
With B you can drive vehicles up to 3.5 t.
whether Womo, car or truck
Is the length of the car therefore “egal” exactly like the width? Besides, the pick up also has the orange lights in the grill, can I have them during the ride?
Thanks for the quick answer
Whether longer or wider is no matter. Only the maximum permissible total weight is the same as 3,5 t .
I don’t know the orange lights.
You’ll spend $100,000 on a car.
Without knowing if you have the required driving licence at all?
Reliable information in the vehicle data
If the vehicle meets the requirement for registration as a truck, this is noticeable at the KFZ control.
