Category B allows towing a trailer, but the total combined weight of the vehicle and trailer cannot exceed 3,500 kg if the trailer's maximum weight is over 750 kg. Category BE is required for vehicle combinations where the towing vehicle is Category B, but the combination's total weight exceeds what is permitted by Category B, allowing for much heavier trailers.
For the practical exam, the trailer must have an admissible total weight of at least 1000 kg, be capable of reaching 80 km/h, have a closed body at least as wide and high as the towing vehicle (minor width exceptions apply for visibility), and be used with an operating weight of at least 800 kg.
Yes, the minimum age for Category BE in Switzerland is 17 years. You must also already possess at least a learner's permit for Category B before applying for BE. No additional first-aid course or eye test is required if you already hold a valid driving or learner's permit.
Driving with heavy trailer combinations introduces significant risks to stability, such as snaking (trailer swaying) or jack-knifing, especially at higher speeds, in crosswinds, or during emergency braking. Understanding weight distribution, loading, and appropriate driving techniques is crucial to prevent loss of control and potential accidents.
Category BE allows you to tow heavier trailers than Category B, but there are still maximum permissible weights specified for your towing vehicle by its manufacturer, which you must always adhere to. Your licence grants the legal permission, but the vehicle's technical limits and safe operating practices dictate what can actually be towed safely.
By completing BE Trailers Advanced, you will gain stronger rule knowledge, faster recognition of signs and situations, better decision making in traffic scenarios, and increased accuracy on exam style questions used in Switzerland. These outcomes directly support higher scoring exam performance.
