TOWING UP TO two tonnes of steel and glass fibre down the road at 60mph really isn't something to be done lightly.

On today's often chaotically busy roads, having the ability to stop your outfit quickly and safely is more essential than ever, so it's crucial that you keep your caravan brakes in tip-top condition. Well-maintained brakes on your tow car and caravan will deliver effective deceleration in any emergency situation.
