Topic 14. Vehicles and trailer combinations.
Car, motorcycle, trailer — no two vehicles behave the same. You learn what Klasse B actually covers, when you need B96 or BE, and how a combination with a trailer behaves when driving, braking, manoeuvring and loading. Compulsory topic (§ 4 FahrschAusbO).

Compulsory topic for Klasse B
Topic 14 belongs to the class-specific Zusatzstoff. Under § 4 FahrschAusbO you have to have attended topics 13 and 14 at least once before you are admitted to the Theorieprüfung. Plan those two sessions in early — then nothing stands in your way at the end.
Dates
When does topic 14 run?
Next time on Wednesday, 12/08/2026. After that topic 14 comes round on every pass — so there is no date you have to wait for.
A fixed rotation
The plan works through all 14 topics and then starts again from the top. You join wherever it currently stands.
Double sessions on Tuesday and Thursday
On those two evenings two topics run back to back. The plan then moves on by two.
Holidays shift the plan, they don't delete anything
There are no lessons on NRW public holidays. No topic is dropped for it — the whole plan simply moves back.
Secure your place
Be there for the next session.
Once you have registered you join the rotation as it runs — topic 14 then comes to you automatically. We plan theory and practice in parallel so you are never left waiting.
