Frequently asked questions
Does CACES 1B let me drive a pallet truck?
No, each category is separate. A rider pallet truck needs category 1A. Many candidates take 1A and 1B together because the theory test is the same.
How many questions are there to prepare for CACES 1B?
Cariprep has 275 questions for category 1B: the ones common to every category plus those specific to these trucks. On test day, the theory test has 100 questions.
Is the theory test the same for every category?
Yes. The R489 theory test is the same for every category: 100 questions across 4 themes. You need at least 70/100 and half the points in each theme. The categories differ mainly in the practical test.
How long does it take to prepare?
Usually two to three weeks at 15 minutes a day. A good benchmark: score above 80/100 on several mock exams in a row before test day.
