Draft Motor Vehicles (Driving Licences) (Amendment) (No. 5) Regulations 2021

Ministerial correction made by Trudy Harrison (Conservative) on Wednesday, 15 December 2021, in the House of Commons on behalf of the Department for Transport.

Draft Motor Vehicles (Driving Licences) (Amendment) (No. 5) Regulations 2021

The following is an extract from the Third Delegated Legislation Committee debate on 13 December on the draft Motor Vehicles (Driving Licences) (Amendment) (No. 5) Regulations 2021.

It is worth noting that around 6 million drivers who passed their test before 1 January 1997 can already drive a car with a trailer without having to take

a separate test. This change affords that same entitlement to drivers who passed the test after 1997.

[Official Report, Third Delegated Legislation Committee, 13 December 2021, Vol. 705, c. 4.]
