2What is the function of the yellow pneumatic line (manöverledning) when towing a heavy trailer?
3When connecting standard pneumatic lines during coupling, what is the recommended connection sequence and why?
4What is the statutory maximum combined total weight (tågtotalvikt) permitted for a vehicle combination under driving licence category C1E?
5On an overrun-braked trailer (påskjutsbroms) up to 3,500 kg, what is the role of the breakaway safety cable (katastrofbromsvajer)?
6What immediate reaction occurs in the trailer brake system if the red air supply hose breaks or uncouples while driving?
7Why are overrun brakes (påskjutsbromsar) legally prohibited on trailers with a total weight exceeding 3,500 kg?
8During a pre-trip inspection of a drawbar coupling (bygelkoppling/dragögla), how do you confirm that the coupling pin is properly locked?
9What handling and safety problem occurs if a center-axle trailer has excessive positive drawbar load (för högt kultryck)?
10A C1 lorry with gross weight 5,200 kg is coupled to a center-axle trailer with actual gross weight 3,800 kg. If the vertical drawbar load (kultryck) resting on the truck's hitch is 200 kg, what is the actual load supported by the trailer's road wheels (axeltryck)?
About the Kunskapsprov C1E Exam
Kunskapsprov C1E is the Swedish driving licence theory test for driving a medium truck (category C1) coupled with a heavy trailer (over 750 kg) with a maximum combined vehicle weight (tågtotalvikt) of up to 12,000 kg, or a category B car coupled with a trailer exceeding 3,500 kg up to 12,000 kg. Trafikverket administers the computer-based knowledge test and practical driving test, while Transportstyrelsen sets the driver licensing rules under Körkortslagen (1998:488). The examination covers vehicle knowledge and manoeuvring, environment, traffic safety, traffic rules, and personal conditions. The official test is taken in Swedish. Independent Category C1E practice by OpenExamPrep is an English-language multiple-choice study adaptation, not an official translation or simulation, covering coupling mechanisms, continuous pneumatic brake lines, off-tracking (genande), rear overhang swing-out, jackknifing hazards, axle load distribution, load securing (80% forward / 50% sideways and backward), and Swedish vehicle combination speed limits.

What vehicles can I drive with a Category C1E licence?
Category C1E entitles you to drive a medium lorry (category C1, maximum total weight between 3,500 kg and 7,500 kg) coupled with a trailer exceeding 750 kg, provided the combined gross vehicle weight (tågtotalvikt) does not exceed 12,000 kg. It also permits driving a Category B vehicle coupled with a trailer exceeding 3,500 kg, as long as the combination weight does not exceed 12,000 kg.
What is the difference between BE, C1E, and CE licences?
Category BE allows a category B car (max 3,500 kg) towing a trailer up to 3,500 kg (max combo 7,000 kg). Category C1E allows a C1 lorry (up to 7,500 kg) or B car with a heavy trailer where the total combination weight does not exceed 12,000 kg. Category CE allows a heavy truck without upper weight limit (Category C) towing trailers of any permitted weight.
Are these official Trafikverket questions?
No. These are independent practice questions authored by OpenExamPrep from Swedish rules and Transportstyrelsen and Trafikverket guidance. The official test is taken in Swedish; this bank is an English-language multiple-choice study adaptation of the same knowledge areas, not an official translation or simulation.
