P Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 Was in France last week and, on one of the Autoroutes overtook a car towing a caravan and, attached to the caravan was a trailer. French plates were fitted. Now, I am aware that two trailers can be towed subject to the driver having a Showmans licence. Is it legal for an ordinary driver in France to tow two trailers – not that I want to. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunday Driver Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 If you hold an (E)C licence you can drive a "train double" - tractor unit plus articulated semi-trailer plus second drawbar trailer. A "train routier" (essentially a train double with extra trailer(s)) can be driven on a special permit. I can't imagine a private car driver would go to the trouble to obtain this special permit.
