Magnetic relfective signs? (1 Viewer)

[sugarplum]

Hi all

Can't find if this has been covered or not?

I read somewhere recently about new legislation for towing in Spain that requires a reflective sign.
Does anyone know if there is a specific sign?

I was thinking of a relflective "LONG VEHICLE" sign, but can't seem to find where to buy one.

I've got the square one from Fiamma [not reflective] that you can put on bike racks, but don't think this would be good enough.

Cheers Alice and George

Does one display these two marker boards horizontal as shown in the HGV Directs web site or can they be displayed vertical?
