Towing trailers
– Drivers who are towing a trailer for the first
time must practise driving with a trailer in a
suitable area.
– When passing through narrow road areas
(entrances, gates etc.), observe the dimen-
sions of the trailer and load.
– When towing mul
tiple trailers, ensure
a sufficient min
imum distance to fixed
installations
when turning and cornering.
The permissible length of the trailer trains
depends on the roadways to be driven and
may need to be determined during the test
drive.
It is the responsibility of the operating com-
pany to instruct the drivers regarding the
permissible number of trailers and, where
required, any additional speed reductions on
individual sections of the route.
NOTE
Please observe the definition of the following
responsible persons: "operating company"
and "driver".
