Category B drivers now eligible for zero emission vehicles up to 4.25 tonnes


Following the recent change in legislation, holders of a category B driving licence now have the entitlement to drive zero emission vehicles up to 4.25 tonnes.

It has removed the requirement for the five hours of training and permits vehicles to tow up to the current category BE limit of 7 tonne. Logistics UK have updated the briefing note to cover these changes.

The Briefing Note can be downloaded from here.
