Towing is the process of pulling a vehicle or object using another vehicle, often referred to as the towing vehicle. This is commonly done with a tow truck, which is specially designed to transport disabled or improperly parked vehicles. Towing can also involve trailers, which are used to carry goods or recreational vehicles like campers. The towing process requires proper equipment, such as tow hitches and safety chains, to ensure secure connections between the vehicles. It is important to follow local laws and regulations regarding towing, as improper towing can lead to accidents or damage to the vehicles involved.
