Can you ride a scooter on a car licence in SA?

In South Africa, the regulations regarding riding a scooter on a car license are as follows:

If you have a Code B driver’s license in South Africa, which is the standard passenger vehicle license, you are allowed to ride a scooter or motorcycle with an engine capacity of 125cc or lower. This means you can legally operate a scooter with a 150cc engine on a car license.

  1. The scooter must have an engine capacity of 125cc or less.
