Towing limits

[colin salmon]

Hello

  My 17yr old son passed his practical driving test today and he wants to know if he is allowed to tow our trailer, it is one of those small lightweight ones you buy from Halfords. I know he will have to sit another test if he wants to tow the caravan but I am unsure of the regulations regarding small trailers, it is only big enough to carry the tent, some deckchairs and a small table and stove. Hopefully somebody can shed some light on this for me.

 Thanks in anticipation
