When towing a trailer or caravan in Great Britain, the maximum speed limit is typically 50 mph on single carriageway roads and 60 mph on dual carriageways and motorways, unless a lower local limit is indicated. You must always adhere to the lower of the two limits.
Extended-arm side mirrors are essential because towing a large trailer or caravan can significantly obstruct your rear view. They provide an extended field of vision, allowing you to see clearly along both sides and directly behind your towed unit, which is crucial for safe maneuvering and observation.
To ensure stability, distribute the weight in your trailer or caravan evenly, placing heavy items low down and directly over the axle(s). Crucially, ensure the hitch exerts an appropriate downward force on the tow ball, adhering to the maximum noseweight specified in your vehicle handbook, to prevent snaking and loss of control.
Strong crosswinds can destabilise a towed unit, causing it to snake or swerve dangerously. If you encounter crosswinds, reduce your speed immediately, grip the steering wheel firmly, and be prepared for slight steering corrections. Avoid sudden braking or acceleration.
Yes, if you passed your car driving test on or after 1 January 1997, there are restrictions on the weight of trailer you can tow with your Category B licence. You must not tow more than your licence permits and may need to pass an additional test (Category B+E or C1+E) for heavier trailer combinations.
