Question 6388

You are driving a truck with a maximum authorized mass (MMA) of 3,000 kg. May you tow a light trailer if you hold a class B driver's license?

  1. Only when the trailer's maximum mass does not exceed the truck's own unladen weight.
  2. Yes.
  3. No.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Yes.

Yes. A category B license lets you drive motor vehicles (automóviles) with an MMA of up to 3,500 kg, and your 3,000 kg truck is within that limit. You can tow a light trailer with an MMA of no more than 750 kg, without comparing its mass to the truck's unladen mass.
