AA Tow Rope - Tesco

i have been towed on the motorway and it was a brown pants moment more than once!! TBH i wouldnt tow a car again... or be towed. the last time i was towed my gearbox had imploded so i still had brakes steering, but other times, having next to no brakes and steering... naaaa. i have recovery on both my cars now through my bank account (and even though one is only 2yrs old it doesnt have a spare wheel)
 
ahh, but it has been ammended a couple of years back:

The only times when you can use your amber flashing light are when you are:

at the scene of an emergency
wanting to let people know you are there (mucking about around college (private land)).
at or near an accident or broken-down vehicle
towing a broken-down vehicle
escorting a very long or wide vehicle (below 25 mph, unless you are in an abnormal load escort vehicle) and have special authority

If you note "Towing", so if its on a flatbed, ambers should not be used... (Take that AA...) :devil:

Thanks for confirming that. Only time mine are used are the bold ones :p

Remeber having to dig it out for a Focus Estate on its roof in the middle of the road. People were a tad surprised to see me dig out my new LED BlazeBar, was more effective than the blues on the police cars that turned up :devil:
