Default Towing Query


"phv" wrote in message
...

Can I tow a trailer which weighs one and half tons that will have a
TWO ton vehicle on the bed of the trailer, The trailer is fully
enclosed and tri axle.
Do I legally have to have a TACHOGRAPH fitted.

This will Hire/Reward, (New Business)

I will be towing with a Mitsubishi Pajero 2.8 Exceed I know the
petrol will be heavy !


Further to my earlier reply to this question:

Google Pajero maximum towing, and it looks like it's only 2500kg

Don't forget there is a maximum width for trailers towed by tonka toys,
even proper ones, of 2300mm. There have been some well-reported cases
of systematic trailer checks at motorway services where owners of wide
trailers have had to get their yankavans taken home by HGVs because they
exceeded this width.


If ANYONE can give a answer please contact me ASAP.


No, sorry, that's not how newsgroups work. Ask on the group, read the
answers on the group; and ideally share a bit of _your_ knowledge, too.
Like answering my previous question about where you've found that will
cover goods in transit on a trailer for a sensible price.
