1. Permiso de conducir AM
Un permiso de conducir AM permite conducir determinados ciclomotores y vehículos ligeros con una velocidad máxima por construcción de hasta 45 km/h. Es la categoría europea utilizada habitualmente para ciclomotores más rápidos, scooters y cuadriciclos ligeros. La edad mínima, formación y requisitos de examen teórico y práctico varían entre países. Los ciclomotores más lentos o bicicletas eléctricas pueden quedar fuera de la categoría AM según su velocidad, potencia y normas nacionales.
