Just before the Moerdijk bridge, in the early morning mist, you are driving a car of 2,800 kg permitted maximum mass with a 900 kg trailer (combination 3,700 kg). Which licence do you need at minimum?

1. Plain B suffices, because the trailer is lighter than 3,500 kg
2. BE is mandatory, B+code 96 is not allowed here
3. C1E, because the combination is above 3,500 kg
4. B + code 96 (or BE)

At a campsite in Zeeland you compare two combinations (permitted maximum masses). Combination 1: car 2,400 kg + trailer 1,200 kg = 3,600 kg. Combination 2: car 1,900 kg + trailer 600 kg = 2,500 kg. You have a plain B licence. Which may you drive?

1. Combinations 1 and 2
2. Only combination 2
3. Neither of the two

While checking in at the campsite, the site manager asks about your licence. You have a tandem-axle trailer (double axle) of 1,500 kg behind a car of 1,800 kg (combination 3,300 kg). The manager says: 'You need a BE licence for that, surely?' Is that correct?

1. No, the combination stays within 3,500 kg, so a plain B licence is enough
2. Yes, with B the trailer may not be heavier than 750 kg
3. Yes, with two axles BE is needed, however heavy the combination is
