Question 5097

Does a class A1 driver's license authorize you to ride motorcycles with a sidecar?

  1. Yes, motorcycles of any displacement.
  2. Yes, motorcycles up to 125 cc with power not exceeding 11 kilowatts.
  3. No, under no circumstances.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Yes, motorcycles up to 125 cc with power not exceeding 11 kilowatts.

Yes. A category A1 license lets you ride motorcycles with or without a sidecar, provided they do not exceed 125 cm³, 11 kW, and 0.1 kW/kg. The sidecar does not change those limits. For a motorcycle with a larger engine displacement or more power, you need an A2 or A license.
