| If you passed after 1997 you can only tow a trailer with a max loaded weight of 750 kg without taking the trailer test. | |

| Most fucked up thing is you can drive a tractor with a trailer of up to 20 tonne if I remember the number correctly on a provisional liscence at the age of 16 but you can't tow over 750 with your car without doing another test. | |
