Driving tests further to the basic car one. - FotheringtonThomas
I passed my car test shortly after the automatic allowance of licence to drive various interesting things was removed (I've had a full motorbike licence for far longer).

This means I need to take additional tests to tow heavy trailers, for instance, or drive track-laying vehicles.

What's automatically "on the licence" these days?

What's the procedure for taking tests for the various classes?

The vehicle classes you can drive will be shown on your licence.

I mis-read his post. Apologies.

To get the other categories you first need to apply for the provisional entitlement and then take the test.
