I assumed it was the son in the tow car lol?

which brings me to a.question that popped into my head regarding the .Gov link above. If there is someone in the car being towed (if that is legal in a rigid trailer system ), do they qualify as a remote braking device?

I am with you sonic though on trailer masses and loads etc, after experiencing an overweight load with a dual axle braked trailer begining to snake at 40mph. Thankfully this nut ignored the advice that I was given and was able to safely (if stupidly) reach my destination 4 miles away. Ever since whilst ignorant of the laws and towing capacities in some instances, I have always towed mass much less than what I think my car has. A bump in the road, a punctured trailer wheel or the idiot beside me on the motorway (ie the unforseen) is all it takes for an avoidable incident to afflict the innocent.
