Question 7556

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

  1. Yes, motorcycles with an engine displacement of no more than 125 cubic centimeters and a power output not exceeding 11 kilowatts.
  2. No, under no circumstances.
  3. Yes, motorcycles of any engine displacement.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Yes, motorcycles with an engine displacement of no more than 125 cubic centimeters and a power output not exceeding 11 kilowatts.

Yes. A category A1 license lets you ride motorcycles with or without a sidecar if they do not exceed 125 cm³, 11 kW, and 0.1 kW/kg. Having a sidecar does not raise those limits, and a larger motorcycle requires A2 or A.
