– Use a rigid towing bar.
If a rope or cable is used
(where the law allows this),
the vehicle being towed
must be able to brake.
– A vehicle must not be towed if it is
not fit to be driven.
– Avoid accelerating or braking suddenly when towing, as this
may result in damage being
caused to the vehicle.
– In all cases, it is advisable not to exceed 15.5 mph (25 km/h).
– Do not push the vehicle if the steering column is locked.
