What is allowed when towing another vehicle?

Towing another vehicle with a tow-bar is considered a safe and effective method of transportation. A tow-bar is specifically designed for this purpose, providing secure attachment points that allow for better control and stability during towing. This method reduces the likelihood of accidents or equipment failure, as it ensures the towed vehicle is properly aligned and secured to the towing vehicle, enhancing both safety and reliability while on the road.

Using a tow-rope, while sometimes permissible in certain situations, can lead to hazardous conditions if not done correctly, as it lacks the robustness and control that a tow-bar provides. Additionally, when towing a trailer with passengers or using a truck, specific regulations govern the speed and the number of passengers, which may not allow for safe towing in many circumstances. Therefore, the most recommended and legislatively supported method for towing is indeed the use of a tow-bar.
