Driving a 4.25-tonne motorhome with a B licence: details take shape
Original source: Camping-car.com

On 9 September 2026, FFCC president Bruno Garancher met with the Road Safety Delegation to discuss the transposition of the new EU driving licence directive into French law. Directive No. 2025/2205 must be transposed by November 2027 and will allow B licence holders to drive motorhomes with a gross vehicle weight between 3.5 and 4.25 tonnes, and up to 5 tonnes with a trailer under certain conditions. A supplementary training of about 7 hours, without a new exam, would be required; a new code 96.02 is under consideration. Issues such as training vehicles and driving school accreditation remain unresolved.
