Talk Morgan Forums Morgan Sports Cars Morgan Three Wheeler & Super 3 Three Wheeler Driving Licence for Europe

This has already been mentioned in the advice for driving in France thread but it's worth highlighting as it potentially affects any UK licenced driver travelling to Europe.

The Morgan Three Wheeler Club has recently published it's understanding of the current UK and EU situation https://www.mtwc.co.uk/2022/05/changes-to-driving-licence-warning/

In a nutshell; to drive a Morgan Three Wheeler in Europe on a UK driving licence you must be over 21 and either:

- Have held your current UK Car Driving licence since before 19th January 2013
or
- Hold a UK full Class A motorcycle licence

You can still drive a M3W in the UK on a UK car driving licence regardless of when you passed your test as long as you are over 21.

That is how I understand it from the relevant government web site (lost the link for the present).
Handy to see MTWC publish it

Whilst on the way back from the Jungfrau-Treffen two of us were stopped by German customs for a "Random Check". They specifically wanted to check our driving licences and looked up on their database to confirm we were OK to drive. They were happy we had licences for type A vehicle and we were on our way.

As a reminder, to drive your M3W in Europe the MTWC understanding is that unless you were licenced to drive a Three-Wheeler before the 19th January 2013 then you need to be over 21 and either have passed your UK car driving test before 19th January 2013 or hold a full, Class A motorcycle licence.

Note for UK residents driving in the UK you simply need to have your car driving licence and be over 21

Did they mistake you for someone under 21 then Chris?

Probably
