towing another car.

Hi does anyone know if the car you are towing has to be insured, taxed and moted?

Thanks Fraz.

of course its a road going car. What happens if the person you're towing hits you/your car or a member of the public? or if the tow snaps etc declared as off the road? hmm!

If its on a trailer it'll be different

what about the easy tow thing where no one is in the other car?

If it's physically on the road as in tyres on tarmac then it needs to be insured and MOT'd.
No different to being parked up and not driven.

^__ +1 if the tyres have contact to the road surface it needs to have insurance, tax and mot (if required)
