Hi all,



Does anyone know what the letters mean on the TRNC licence,

I have all these letters and can't find out what they mean.





Thanks.

Best of luck, I tried asking a policeman and he just shrugged and walked away - guess I can drive anything until stopped and told I can't. OR I can't drive anything unless I am told I can (whilst driving it), I just love it here.

Hi Waddo,



Yes same as no one seems to know, but when I asked what you get as standard they said just car which I think is cat D, but I have three other categories on my licence maybe have to try them in Lefkosa but get all the way there and they will say don't no we just print them.LOL



Thanks.

The categories are just about the same as the UK licence. I have a "D" which is "D1" in the UK. Look on the back of your card licence for the categories in the UK.



A "D" allows you to drive anything up to a minibus with 16 seats here. I had driven a 17 seater minibus with 2 seats removed, hence a 15 seater. It was subsequently pointed out to us by the police that this was not permitted as the bus had the capacity for 17 seats. They were very nice about it.



D does not permit a trailer to be used.

Oh get lost Coachie you sad little man..... and what exactly does 'rereply' mean?. This was supposed to be a useful and helpful thread. Go back to your cheese on toast.
