Now that looked like fun, highly illegal on UK roads.

Here a question about towing trailers.

Artic tractor unit towing 40foot trailer towing a caravan.

Is it legal? give explanation for your answer.

Some on here I suspect will know the correct answer.

The later Penman trailers also have a pintle of sorts on the rear, but carries a warning label that it is only to be used whilst maneovering in the yard / low speed, and absolutely not on a highway.

It isn't built as heavily as a true pintle, being a bent steel bar type of arrangement, not a cast NATO style jaw.
