Questions Learners Have About Trailer Towing Rules

Find answers to the most common queries learners have when practising Trailer Towing Rules, including how questions match the official theory exam in Belgium, how scoring works, and how this practice improves exam readiness.

What is the maximum weight a Category B licence holder can tow in Belgium?

With a standard Category B licence, you can tow a trailer with a Maximum Permissible Mass (MMA) of up to 750 kg. If the trailer's MMA exceeds 750 kg, the combined MMA of the towing vehicle and trailer must not exceed 3,500 kg. For heavier combinations, a B code 96 or BE licence is required.

Do I need special mirrors when towing a trailer in Belgium?

Yes, if your trailer is wider than the towing vehicle, you are legally required to fit extended wing mirrors to ensure you have adequate rearward visibility and can see clearly along both sides of your trailer.

What is the speed limit for a car with a trailer on Belgian motorways?

When towing a trailer with a Category B licence in Belgium, the speed limit on motorways is generally reduced to 100 km/h, even if the general speed limit for cars is 120 km/h. Always observe specific road signs which may impose lower limits.

What number plate should a trailer have in Belgium?

In Belgium, a trailer must display the same number plate as the towing vehicle. This ensures the trailer is legally linked to the vehicle pulling it and is easily identifiable.

Is an unbraked trailer over 750 kg allowed in Belgium?

No, a trailer with a Maximum Permissible Mass (MMA) exceeding 750 kg must be equipped with its own braking system. An unbraked trailer over 750 kg MMA is illegal in Belgium, regardless of the combined vehicle and trailer weight.
