I past my driving test awhile back for my "B" license but have wondered why it says on my lcense that I can also drive a "W" category vehicle also. I did not do a test for a work vehicle so why is this so? Timmy

Maybe you ticked the box?

By default, a full licence in category B allows you to drive vehicles in categories M & W.

When i got my license back in 1999 W was standard on Provisionals. Hence when you pass your test it was on there by default
