Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Yes, when the maximum authorized mass (MMA) does not exceed 3,500 kilograms.

Yes, if its MMA does not exceed 3,500 kg, the category B limit for any motor vehicle (automóvil). A light truck is covered by that license just like a passenger car. For a heavier vehicle, you generally need a C1 license, up to 7,500 kg, or a C license.
