The front and rear tow hooks should be used only for
emergencies on the road. You are allowed to tow the
vehicle for short distances using an appropriate device
in accordance with the highway code (a rigid bar), to move the
vehicle on the road in readiness for towing or transport via a
breakdown vehicle. Tow hooks MUST NOT be used to tow
vehicles off the road or where there are obstacles and/or for
towing operations using cables or other non-rigid devices.
Respecting the above conditions, towing must take place with the
two vehicles (one towing, the other towed) aligned as much as
possible along the same centre line.
