    Just a quick one.......
                                  Is it a legal requirement to have towing mirrors attached to my tug whilst towing CT ??

                                                      Cheers Tracker.

Not for a CT unless your CT is obscuring your rearward vision.

I put towing mirrors on my GU ute whilst towing the CT so periodically I can keep an eye on the trailer in specific the wheels , as with my canopy on I cant see the whole side of the CT with original mirrors

Try getting your truck licence these days, they want you looking in your mirrors and everywhere else more than they want you to watch where your going.......
