In the case of category B + E, the trailer with overrun brake cannot have more than ~ 2.6 tons of actual weight. Only a trailer with an air brake can have a real weight of 3.5t. It results from the regulations (coefficient 1.33). It should not be forgotten that in both cases the towing vehicle must also have a real weight of 3.5t. no less. It should also be remembered that in the case of category B itself, we are concerned by Art. 88 of the Highway Code, which specifies the curb weight of the towing vehicle and the permissible total weight of the trailer. If we have category B + E, we are subject to Art. 62 of the Highway Code, which specifies the actual total weight of the towing vehicle and the actual total weight of the trailer, in practice it even means that the trailer may have a higher permissible total weight in the evidence, but in fact it cannot weigh more than 3.5t together with the load. The Code is imprecise here, two articles (88 and 62) are somewhat inconsistent with each other because Art. 62 can also be applied to category B itself, after all, it also refers to a car vehicle up to 3.5 tons. and "allows" this article to do something other than Art. 88. There is no reservation in any of these articles that they contradict each other, as it is in other cases, so theoretically one can stick to Art. 62 which allows for a bit more to the holder of category B. because pursuant to Art. 62 theoretically, you can drive the maximum set of 1.75 t + 1.75 t and pursuant to art. 88 e.g. with a 2.0t + 1.5t set. In the first case, it is possible to drive a combination with a heavier trailer with an air brake. This arrangement can be found in theory, but the law allows it. It does not change the fact that a person without training can drive any trailer that is worse than light (heavy), which is a far-reaching misunderstanding for me.
