some of these towed microcars come with a seperate electronically controlled brake which basically applys pressure to all 4 brakes. They are legal if its the proper piece of kit.
 
ive just ordered another towing A frame.

Bought a discovery on ebay that doesnt run (genius idea!) and if I cant fix it at the roadside I will have the mrs in the disco and will tow it with the defender. She is then being "recovered". Its only a few miles away from my house and although a straight bar would do the job, the thought of my mrs being in a car just a few feet behind me scares the crap out of me. At least with the A frame she has no control :eek: *unless she holds the bloody steering wheel!*

My mate tows a stupid Smart car on an A frame behind his motorhome, the braking is done by an electronic gizmo that attaches to the brake pedal of the Smart, I don't know where the other end goes in the Motorhome though.:)
I understood A frames were outlawed by the EU some time ago except for short distance recovery.

i think they are too, but they seem to be ignored if used correctly.
