Under what visibility conditions are motorcycles, mopeds, tricycles, cycles, or bicycles permitted to tow a trailer?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The General Traffic Regulations establish strict rules for two-wheeled vehicles (such as motorcycles, mopeds and bicycles) to be able to tow a trailer or semi-trailer. The fundamental condition regarding the surroundings is that travel must take place during the day and in conditions that do not reduce visibility. This means that towing a trailer is prohibited at night, at dawn or dusk in poor light, or in adverse weather conditions (fog, heavy rain) that reduce visibility, regardless of the type of lights the vehicle has. In addition, remember that the mass of the trailer must not exceed 50% of the unladen mass of the towing vehicle and that carrying people in the trailer is prohibited.
