Towing Speed limits...
On motorways & dual carriageways 60 MPH, other roads 50 MPH, provided no lower limit is in force and the gross weight of vehicle and trailer is less than 7.5 tonnes. You are not allowed in the third lane of a motorway when towing.
M.O.T.
M.O.T: Not (yet) required for trailers of less than 3500 Kg gross weight fitted with over-run brakes. (note however that an unroadworthy trailer invalidates the towing insurance!)
Unbraked Trailers
Unbraked Trailers: Maximum gross weight of an unbraked trailer is 750 Kg or half the kerb weight of the towing vehicle - whichever is the less. I must point out here that we've been given conflicting information about gross weight - some have said this is the actual gross weight while others claim that this is the 'maximum permitted gross weight' or MAM. Both sources are normally reliable so confusion reigns! This difference could be of real importance when deciding whether to tow an ultra-mini car on an a-frame.
Make sure that if you are renting out your Static Caravan that it is insured for this !! Also if you are loaning your Caravan out that it is insured for family members as well !?
