Traffic safety: Rules for the safety of people and cargo, and their identifiers
Explanation
Motorcycles can tow a **trailer or semi-trailer** under certain specific conditions. It is important that the **weight of the trailer** does not exceed **50% of the unladen mass** of the motorcycle. This means that the trailer must be light enough not to affect the stability and safety of the vehicle.
Furthermore, it is essential that the trailer does not carry people and that the motorcycle travels at a speed lower than the maximum allowed. It is also necessary for the trailer to be used during the day and in conditions of good visibility.
These rules ensure that the transport is safe for both the driver and other road users. Complying with these conditions is essential to avoid accidents and maintain control of the vehicle at all times.
