Is towing with a rope illegal in england?
think in part due combination of 2 documents.
reg100(3) (construction , use regs -1986)
"no motor vehicle or trailer shall used purpose unsuitable cause or cause danger or nuisance person in or on vehicle or trailer or on road."
highway code:
"in event of breakdown, aware towing vehicle on tow rope potentially dangerous. should consider professional recovery."
although highway code isn't law such, give officer reason believe danger may posed use of 'tow rope' - particularly if way coupled other evidence (poor braking in towed vehicle , suchlike). given no mention made of tow bar being potentially dangerous viewed safer alternative , less make driver subject scrutiny.
i keep finding different aswers
