Semi-trailer tractors are not required to have a gross weight greater than the gross weight of the trailer
Based on Clause 2, Article 29 of the Road Traffic Law 2008, the regulation is as follows:
- The towing vehicle must have a total weight greater than the trailer's or must have an effective braking system for the trailer.
Thus, it can be seen that there is no mandatory regulation requiring the towing vehicle to have a total weight greater than the trailer's if there is an effective braking system for the trailer, it is still compliant with the provisions for towing vehicles.
Sincerely!
