So many times lately I have seen caravans and trailers overturned whilst been towed by larger vehicles, such as 4x4's and large vans

Also still amazed that whilst driving a coach at a limit of 62 mph how many vehicles that are towing seem to 'sail' past me at speed, people really do need to understand that when towing you have a legal obligation to be aware of your 'new' speed limits.... so when on a Motorway you are no longer permitted to travel at 70 mph, but a max of 60 mph

Also due to the vehicle now been restricted to a maximum of 60 mph you are not permitted to use the Outside lane (nearest central reservation) on a Motorway that has three or more lanes.

I know most on here will already know this, but it does no harm in repeating this information for those that are maybe new to towing.
