Do you need permission in writing for having a tow bar installed on the back of a pickup and to use it for towing a licensed trailer?
Only things I've seen is that
1) Goods vehicles (heavy and extra heavy) require a revolving amber light when towing a trailer. To get a revolving amber light you need to have permission as it is an additional light. The vehicle is a light T, so does this mean that it does not need any letter?
2) It is an offence for a vehicle to tow anything other than a motor vehicle or licensed trailer. The trailer is licensed and insured.
Need to get the trailer inspected and I'm a bit apprehensive about going into LO without knowing for sure.

It's the same with bikers/cyclists who drive. Generally speaking, drivers who've never rode, drive with scant regard for bikers/cyclists.

Have a debate with some padnas who do this and say once you park up and resting, your're not operating the vehicle, so you can't get charged. But ent you were operating the vehicle before?
