The European Directive on Driving Licences was implemented in all Member States from 19 January 2013. It brought the following change: any entitlements to drive granted before 19 January 2013 remain. As a consequence, you will find below the different scenarios allowing you to ride Can-Am On-Road vehicles.

UNITED KINGDOM

WITH CAR LICENCE (B)

If you acquired your car licence (B) before 19 January 2013 and were allowed to drive 3-wheel motorcycles with your licence, then you can keep your existing entitlements in the UK and anywhere in the EU.

If you acquired your car licence (B) after 19 January 2013, you can ride Can-Am On-Road vehicles in the UK from the age of 21 years old.

WITH MOTORCYCLE LICENCE (A)

You can ride Can-Am On-Road vehicles with a motorcycle licence (A) from the age of 21 years old in the UK and anywhere in the EU.
