The process to change the law in Parliament to allow all car drivers to tow a trailer up to 3,500kg maximum authorised mass (MAM) has restarted.

The law will not change until later in the year and we’ll let you know when it will be introduced.

Until then, unless they hold a full B+E entitlement, drivers who gained their licence after 1 January 1997 will only be able to tow a trailer weighing up to 3,500kg if they:

✔️ display L plates and
✔️ are supervised by a driver who has had a car and trailer licence entitlement for 3 years or more

When the law changes come into force DVLA will update driving licence records to reflect the changes.

The BE category will be added when a new photocard driving licence is issued. Drivers do not need to contact DVLA for this to happen. It will be done automatically.

The rules about towing a trailer or a caravan with a car will not be changing on Monday (15 November 2021) 📣

The change will be introduced in autumn 2021, subject to Parliamentary approvals.

We'll confirm the date as soon as we can.

You must continue to follow the current rules until the law changes ✅

Following the recent government consultation, car drivers will be able to tow a trailer without a taking a test 🚗

This change will mean drivers who passed their car test after 1 January 1997 will be able to tow a trailer up to 3,500kg when the law is changed. This will be as soon as possible.

✔️Drivers who passed their car test before 1 January 1997 can already tow without a car and trailer test, so are not affected by this change.

This will allow us to offer more lorry tests 🚛

We still encourage you to have training before towing a trailer to keep you safe.

Safety First 👍

If you’re furloughed and struggling to manage the bills, a £200 fine for using a mobile phone at the wheel will be even more unwelcome.

As everyone should only be making essential journeys, there’s plenty of time to respond to texts, emails and calls when we’re at home.

We're seeing more reports this afternoon of scam emails that invite users to input their bank details into a website to confirm their COVID-19 vaccine appointment.

The NHS will never ask you to share bank details or pay for a vaccine.

Report these emails to: actionfraud.police.uk

Safety First!

If you’re driving in heavy rain and your steering becomes unresponsive, it could be that water is preventing your tyres from gripping the road.

Aquaplaning is when water builds up between your tyres and the road surface. Ease off the accelerator and slow down gradually.
