I am getting a lot of questions about towing!

All of which are answered in the old training courses.

Training courses are now done in your car and your caravan. After all that is what you will be driving after the course.

Why do you need to check the nose, tongue, weight?

The most common answer that is “ what’s that?”

Effective Observation, the only way to know if you can stop, go or slow to go.

This applies to signalling, changing direction, changing speed or approaching a hazard.

Put a box on the back and it’s even more important.

Stay safe.

I use the word Trailer rather than Caravan.

Afterall, a caravan is a trialer, isnt it.

But so is a horse trailer (its not a horse box, thats a lorry!), a builders trailer, a tree cutter trailer, the trqailer to take the rubbish to the tip, the camping trailer .......

Yes they are all fixed to a tow vehicle and are "trailed " around the countryside.

But are they attached ....... how do you know.?

The wind back. Easy when you know how.

Probably not the way to do it

Before you go, make sure it is
S-A-F-E:

Service – has it been serviced recently?

Air in all tyres – check pressure, tread depth, condition and age on both towing vehicle and the trailer/caravan. Don’t forget the spare.

Fit the breakaway cable or safety chain and check all electrical connections.

Examine/check all the lights, towing mirrors, load and weight limit including nose weight, and do the jockey wheel test.

If you don’t know what all these are, maybe you need a couple of hours with me at I Want to Tow.

Winter is on the way. What do you do to your caravan to make sure is safe and ready for next spring?

Unless, like us you use the caravan, or Motorhome all year round.
