    The important points are that a three wheeled vehicle can be driven without a co-driver if the vehicle has not been designed or modified to carry more than one person and the unladen weight does not exceed 550kg.

    Normally, people asking this question have a motorcyle licence but drive Reliant Robins with a provisional driving licence.

    As far as I can make out, the important point is to have a provisional driving licence rather than any need to have a full motorcycle licence in addition. That being the case, you can drive solo not only in a Reliant Robin, but also any three wheeled vehicle which has no reverse gear or reverse gear permanently immobilised.

    This open up a few more options for you. Morgan used to make a three wheeled vehicle, but these are as rare as hen's teeth. Instead, the choice includes bubble cars, bugs, trikes, invalid carriages and a new generation of three wheeled 'smart' cars.

    So how are you supposed to reverse if ur in a backed corner? Ive passed my test in a 125cc shooter bike thingy, will i be able to drive one?

    I'm thinking of making my own model car ( 3 wheels )

    Thinking of using a bikes engine or something similar.
