Which weight-based trailer-brake exemption applies when the towing vehicle is a private passenger vehicle?
Correct answer: A trailer of 910 kg or less, or under half the tow vehicle's unladen weight
Why
For a private passenger towing vehicle, the regulation provides a brake exemption for a trailer with maximum gross weight of no more than 910 kg, or less than half the tow vehicle’s unladen weight. The tow vehicle must still safely control the combination.
