On a motorway or dual carriageway, is it permitted to tow a broken-down vehicle with your own vehicle to the next exit?
Highways and motorways
Explanation
On highways and expressways, **it is not permitted to tow a broken-down vehicle with another unauthorized vehicle**. This is because only vehicles specially equipped for roadside assistance, such as tow trucks, are authorized to perform this task.
- **Emergencies on highways and expressways**: If a vehicle breaks down, it must exit the highway or expressway at the first available exit. If it cannot move, it must be parked on the shoulder or in the median, and help should be requested through a nearby emergency post.
- **Towing broken-down vehicles**: Only authorized vehicles, such as tow trucks, can tow broken-down vehicles. This ensures that towing is carried out safely and without obstructing traffic.
Therefore, the correct answer is that **it is not allowed to tow a broken-down vehicle with your own vehicle** on a highway or expressway.
