On Tow sign on trailer

[TrevChrizy]

Hi,
I know that this question was asked before in the past, but there didn’t seem to be a conclusive answer.
When towing a toad on a trailer, should you have a Tow sign on the back, my thoughts are if that was the case, why don’t caravans have one?

Not on a trailer.

If the car is towed on it's own wheels, yes. To warn other drivers. On a trailer or truck, no, as the tow vehicle lights are on the trailer / truck

Trailers have triangular reflectors. That’s how drivers know they are behind a trailer. The number plate board should have triangular reflectors on it.

If one is using a motor vehicle on a road as a trailer(ie toad) why would a sign advertising the fact that it is in fact a motor vehicle be of benefit.

It can't be both.
