The license of a private minibus states that the minibus may carry 16passengers apart from the driver. What is the maximum amount of passengers a "B" license may carry?
- 12 passengers, excluding the driver.
- 14 passengers, excluding the driver.
- 16 passengers, including the driver.
- Correct answer: Eight passengers, excluding the driver.
Why this is the answer
The correct answer in the official bank: Eight passengers, excluding the driver.
A "B" licence allows carrying no more than eight passengers in addition to the driver, and this is a limit of the driving licence, not of the vehicle. Even if the vehicle licence permits more, such as 16, a "B" licence holder may still carry only eight. Carrying more passengers requires the appropriate minibus driving licence.
