Drivers License

[yebo]

The operative word is "RETRICTION". It prohibits you from doing something beyond what you are licensed for. So if you have restriction 4 in your license then you are RESTRICTED to driving an automatic vehicle up to 4500 kg. You may not drive a manual and/or a vehicle above 4500kg gross weight.

On the other hand if you have 1 and 2 you are restricted to driving motorcycles and vehicles above 4500 kg gross weight. It does not restrict you to doing anything else, so it means you can drive both a manual and an automatic.

Restriction 4 is for the handicapped, like if you have use of only 1 good leg. You can not drive a manual if you have only 1 good leg can you? So you are restricted to driving an automatic because you only need 1 leg to drive it. People who lost a leg, a polio victim or suffered a stroke fall under this category. People with decreased physical abilities, like the elderly, also fall under this category.
