The tow restrictions are to protect the public as much as anything. I have seen trailers manhandle cars that never should have been towing and cause huge accidents. The last one was on a mountain pass and the whole car/trailer jackknifed and was going sideways down 3 lanes until it rolled and separated with debris going everywhere. Miraculously I missed every bit of it, but not everyone did. It is one thing for a driver fatality when someone does something as thoughtless as this, it is another thing when they cause fatalities and injuries of other innocent travelers.
