Regulation 17 Full licences not carrying provisional entitlement
Section 98(2) of the Traffic Act shall not apply to a licence—
which authorises the driving only of motor vehicles adapted on account of a disability, whether pursuant to an application in that behalf made by the holder of the licence or pursuant to a notice served under section 92(5)(b) of the Traffic Act;
in so far as it authorises its holder to drive vehicles of a class included in category B + E, C + E, D + E, K or P or sub-category B1 (invalid carriages), C1, C1 + E, C1 + E (8.25 tonnes), D1 (not for hire or reward), D1 + E or D1 + E (not for hire or reward).
Subject to the following provisions of this regulation, the holder of a full licence authorising him to drive motor vehicles of a class included in a category or sub-category specified in column (1) of the table at the end of this regulation may drive—
in a case where the full licence authorises only the driving of vehicles with automatic transmission, motor vehicles of all classes included in that category or sub-category which have manual transmission, and
motor vehicles of all classes included in a category or sub-category specified, in relation to that category or sub-category, in column (2) of the table,
as if he were authorised by a provisional licence to do so and the application of section 98(2) of the Traffic Act to those classes of vehicle is limited accordingly.
In the case of a licence which authorises the driving only of—
motor bicycles of a class included in sub-category A1, or
standard motor bicycles,
section 98(2) shall not apply so as to authorise the driving of a large motor bicycle by a person under the age of 21.
In the case of a provisional large goods vehicle driver’s licence, this regulation shall apply as modified by regulation 51.
