Stamen Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 NO! Your car licence is not big enough to drive a moped on! You will have to ride it on the road like everyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ratter71 Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 hi im 37 and passed my driving test in 1991 im told i can ride a 50cc moped on my car licence you can If you have a car licence... If you obtained your full car licence before 1 February 2001 you are automatically entitled to ride a moped without L-plates (D-plates in Wales). If you obtained a full car licence after 1 February 2001 you must first complete a CBT course and obtain a DL 196 certificate to validate your entitlement. source: http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/Motoring/LearnerAndNewDrivers/RidingMotorcyclesAndMopeds/DG_10016249 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Call me Al Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 I was going to start a thread on this but I may as well resurect this one instead. So just to clarify, does the following still apply?: For a category P machine (up to 50cc legally defined as a moped) if you passed your car test before Feb 2001, the DVLA will also have given you a full P entitlement. This means it's just like having passed a test on a moped, you can dispense with L plates, CBTs and may carry passengers (but still not use motorways where there is a 50cc lower limit).
