Has anybody on here been banned for dangerous driving i want to know how to get my bike licence back?
I was convicted of dangerous driving in the summer of this year with the added usual stipulation of having to do an extended car test before i am allowed to drive on the road again. The procedure for driving a car is straight forward i.e wait untill the 12month ban expires, apply for provisional,complete driver training, complete hazard perception and theory test and finally undertake extended car test. Now looking on the dvla website i cant figure out what happens about my previously held full catagory A motorcycle entitlement. Does it get reinstated as soon as i have passed my extended car driving test (and completed cbt again reading the info below) or do i have to start from scratch on the bike too and take the whole test again (das) this is all i could find but its not clear too me. Motorcycle riders When your disqualification ends, you’ll need to complete compulsory basic training (CBT) again. This validates the motorcycle entitlement on your new provisional driving licence when it’s issued. This applies in all cases, even if you previously held full motorcycle entitlement. The DL196 ‘certificate of completion’, issued for completing your CBT before you were disqualified, is cancelled by the disqualification. |

Sound like fun to me
![]() Edit: No idea about the licence issue, surely a quick call to the DVLA or DSA would clear it up......they are in charge of it all so keep them on the phone until they give you a satisfactory answer.

I have.
When you apply for your licence again all your current categories will be automatically reinstated. UNLESS you have HGV. I had to wait a further 6 months past my 18 month ban before they would allow me my class 1 category back. This was because they decided I needed to familiarise myself to the road again after an extended period off the road. Edit: You will need to complete CBT training. But do not need to complete your driving test again. Thought I would just make that clear. |

Yeah, works for me. After all, what is a Copper going to do? It's not like they have any power to stop you or anything. Using similar logic I was able to murder and eat my neighbour, while filming it for the internet. ![]() This is what I say to the law... ![]() PS, don't tell my Mum, she will be cross. She is still looking after next doors cat because she thinks they went on holiday to Greece! ![]() |

As far as I am aware, you can pass either the car or bike test and you get both back.
Not 100% sure though, Just think i've read that somewhere. |

psst Jayneflakes - can you pm me the url.
![]() Best to do it that way rather than post the link up here. Some of the mods are a bit over sensitive and would probably claim that snuff movies are not suitable for a u rated forum. ![]() |
