Correct answer

  • CNo.No.
Explanation

Riding a motorcycle towing a trailer at night is prohibited. This is because of reduced visibility and the difficulty of manoeuvring. The trailer makes the vehicle bigger and changes how it behaves, which can make it harder to control, especially in the dark. Poor visibility and lighting conditions make this riding more dangerous. During the day, trailers are allowed, but the speed and load limits must be respected.
