Can I drive a 50cc on a car Licence?

If you passed your driving test before 1 February 2001 you can legally ride a moped (up to 50cc) with no L plates, without taking a CBT course or the full moped test. In this instance you will, however, need to take a CBT if you want to ride anything larger than a 50cc moped.

Taking your CBT also allows you to begin the process of attaining a bike licence.

You will need to have your provisional driving licence before you start.

It is also worth investing in a helmet and the proper protective riding gear too, including: a jacket, trousers and gloves. The test centre will normally be able to provide you with this but if you're going to start riding you will need your own equipment anyway. Your CBT will expire after two years. This means if you do not graduate to a motorbike licence within two years of taking your CBT you will have to take it again to legally ride on the roads. DID YOU KNOW? - The RAC's vehicle check service gives a detailed history of whether a motorbike has been been stolen, written off or is still on finance, allowing you to make the right decision on a used bike before buying. The service also provides a personalised valuation that gives buyers the opportunity to find out if they are getting a good deal or not.

Ride on motorways

The direct access route

If you are aged 19 or over, you will need to pass the theory test and two-module practical test outlined below - providing you have an in date CBT. This test must be taken on a minimum of a 395cc motorcycle with a power output of between 20 kW (27bhp) and 35 kW (47bhp).

The progressive route

Progressive Access is where a motorcyclist can get the next licence up by waiting for two years after they passed their motorcycle test and then re-takes the test on the next engine size up motorcycle. After successfully passing an A2, a driver can either wait until they are 24 or two years after they initially passed their A2 before re-taking the test to ride an unrestricted bike. The theory test will not need to be taken again. This test must be taken on a minimum of a 395cc motorcycle with a power output of between 20 kW (27bhp) and 35 kW (47bhp). REMEMBER - that the maximum power to weight ratio is not allowed to be more than 0.2kwh per kg, also any bike that produces more than 70kwh or 94bhp in standard factory issue cannot be restricted down to 35kwh. The A licence entitles you to ride any machine of any cc and unlimited power, carry a pillion passenger and ride on motorways.

The direct access route

If you are aged 24 or over, you will need to pass the theory test and two-module practical test outlined below - providing you have an in date CBT. This test must be carried out on a motorcycle that produces at least 54bhp or 40kw and is over 595cc, however, it is not advisable to go straight into the A licence without any previous riding experience. REMEMBER - if you want to practise for your test on this size bike, you can only do so if accompanied by a professionally qualified D.S.A. approved motorcycle instructor.

Progressive route

If you have held an A2 licence for at least two years you upgrade to your full A licence by passing the two-part practical test, without taking your theory again. This means you can take the test when you are 21 instead of 24, as with the direct access route. This test must be carried out on a motorcycle that produces at least 54bhp or 40kw and is over 595cc. The theory test is a crucial part of getting your motorbike licence, it will teach you valuable knowledge that you will carry with you every time you get on your bike. Here we explain the process of taking and passing your theory test. Yes, you always need to take and pass a motorbike theory test before taking the motorbike practical test, irrespective of whether you have a full driving licence or not.

If you are planning to ride a 50cc moped when you are 16 you can take the theory test from your 16th birthday onwards. However, if you are planning to learn to ride a motorbike you can take the test from your 17th birthday onwards. You do not have to take your theory test before you have completed the CBT, but you can if you wish to. When you book your practical test one of the steps you will be taken through will prompt you to type in your postcode and will show you the nearest test centres to you. You must take your UK photocard driving licence with you to your test. If you do not have it with you, you will not be able to take the test - no exceptions. If you have a licence from Northern Ireland you will need to bring the photocard and paper counterpart licence and if you have a paper licence you will need to bring a valid passport as well as your paper licence. The theory test is similar to that for car drivers as it involves two parts to the test:

A multiple-choice section - 50 multiple-choice questions to answer in 57 minutes

A hazard perception section - a video test about spotting hazards on the road. You book and take them as a single test. You have to pass both parts to pass the test. You can book your theory test online by visiting gov.uk's page on theory test booking. It costs £23 to take your motorbike theory test, you will have to pay by direct debit card and will be prompted to do so when you book. There are a number of resources you can use to practise for your motorbike theory test, from apps to mocks to paid for media.

We recommend the following resource:

Take a mock motorcycle theory test

The Government portal offers the chance to change the date of your theory test after you’ve booked it, check your appointment details if you’ve lost your booking confirmation and rebook your test should you fail, with ease. When rebooking your test you will need to choose a date at least three working days away. You will need to pass both parts of the tests to pass your theory test.
