Introduction
  • What you need to learn

    You might as well get to the end of the book right away: a driving license alone will not make you a good driver. A license is initially proof that you have passed the driving test and that you have been taught and understand the basic rules. As you become more experienced, you'll become better at handling unexpected situations and understanding traffic in general. As a driver, you have a great responsibility at all times because the vast majority of accidents happen due to human error. It is with these words that this theory book ends. But first, there's a lot you need to learn.

In the Foreword you will find useful information

Hitching a trailer or, as it's called, a 'tow bar' to your car is very popular. This is perhaps because towing equipment and trailers have become cheaper and better than ever, and drivers have found it attractive to have a powerful car to hook up sight-free. There are many advantages to being able to easily attach a nice big trailer to your car. Tradesmen can more easily bring more materials and tools to the jobsite without worrying about overloading the car, and camping enthusiasts may find that camping in a tent has become a bit impractical and that a proper caravan is simply the way to go. Horse trailers are also commonly seen on the road and it's becoming more common to see trailers that can take 2 horses at a time. But a family car towing a large trailer will always be an unstable vehicle in unskilled hands, and as trailers are sold larger and heavier (caravans are now often around 2.50m wide), the risk of road accidents increases. To prevent this risk, you now need a B+ or B-E license, commonly known as a "trailer license", which, after training and a driving test, entitles you to drive a car towing a medium-sized trailer. This book is intended to help drivers who are in the process of completing the B+ or B-E driving training and who want to be well prepared for the driving test and also want to be broadly oriented in the Danish "trailer world".

The Danish Driving Instructors' Union wishes you good luck.
