Three-wheel motor scooter insurance: insure your motor scooter directly!
A three-wheeled motor scooter is a motor scooter with dual front wheels that may be driven with the car driving licence B, provided you have obtained the driving licence before 19-01-2013. This makes the three-wheeled motor scooter a good alternative for motor enthusiasts who do not have a driving licence. A motor scooter offers the convenience of a car and the flexibility of a motorbike. The age limit for driving a three-wheeled motor scooter is 18 years.
Driving licence obligation three-wheeled motor scooter
Did you not obtain your driving licence (B) before 19-01-2013? Then you are in possession of a 'new driving licence'. With the new driving licence obtained in the Netherlands from 19-01-2013, you need a motorbike driving licence (A) to be allowed to drive a three-wheeled motor scooter. It is not necessary to already have a driving licence for a car to obtain a motorbike driving licence.
Since 19-01-2013, the motorbike driving licence has been divided into three categories, namely: A1, A2 and A.
Category A1
This license can be obtained from the age of 18.
For this category there is a maximum of 125 CC and 11 KW power for motorcycles.
There is no maximum CC for tricycles, the maximum power for tricycles is 15 KW.
Category A2
If the driver has held an A1 license for at least two years, category A2 can be obtained. It is also possible to enter without an A1 license, from the age of 20.
A maximum power of 35 KW applies to category A2.
Category A
The minimum age for taking the A category test is 21 years. If the driver obtains the A licence before he or she is 24 years old, code 80 may appear on the licence. Code 80 expires two years after obtaining the category A driving licence or if you turn 24 before then. If you have already obtained the A2 licence before obtaining the A licence, code 80 expires when you have held the A2 licence for two years. If the code expires, you may drive a heavy motorbike (A) without having to take an additional test. If you are under 24, you must apply for a new driving licence from the municipality. If you do not do this, code 80 does not expire until you are 24 years old.

- Gilera Fuoco 500 LT
- Peugeot Metropolis 400(i)
- Yamaha Tricity (125 cc)*
*To ride the Yamaha Tricity (125 cc), unlike the above motor scooters, you must hold an A1 license
