My dad didnt need a CBT to ride a 50cc scooter, but did for anything bigger. Maybe this changed with the newer lisences?

CBT is compulsory for any bike/scooter
Opinions are like backsides..
Everyone has one, nobody wants to hear it and only other peoples stink!

if you have a full car licence issued before 1st febuary 2001 you will have a full moped licence automatically!
So as long as its no bigger than 50cc you can ride without a cbt
Bigger than 50cc or licence after february 2001 needs cbt
Just gone though all this cos have gone to proper bike from scooter

CBT
So it's a "do I really need the problems this moped is going to cause me" sort of thing then? When I took mine it was just riding
round some cones in a tennis court, no philosophy involved at all.
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Everyone should be made to ride 2 wheels first as it teaches respect and you quickly find out that acting a tit hurts

As I remember it, a full driving licence of that age also gives you a provisional and not full moped licence.
You still can not carry passengers and would have to display L plates.
as I say it is as I remember it so could be wrong!

As i understand it, if you got your licence before the cut-off date then you get full moped and provisional motorcycle entitlement.
Although you don't need CBT to take advantage of the moped licence, you do need to take one to use the provisional bike part.

Yeah, just read the DSA website and as my full licence was valid from 1991, I can ride a 50cc moped without any L plates.

And when you get the moped you get a spare engine for the locoblade.....
When I saw the post heading I thought you were going ultra-lightweight and cutting out a couple of the wheels.

i found out the other day that my license is too recent to even drive a mini bus! Which is bizarre, as i drive a van most days for work, but we had to
leave the bus driving to a friend who has rarely ever driven a van sized vehicle...

Yeah for at least two years!!
Also think the Highway Code should be part of the school curriculum. If you don't pass it at school, you NEVER drive. Period
And I think learner (car) drivers must be taught basic car control off the public highway. Like m/cyclists do during CBT.
