Under the general rule for interurban roads, may a motorcycle tow a trailer between sunset and sunrise?

Correct answer

No, the general rule requires daytime travel.

No. Article 12.3 requires daytime travel with no reduced visibility. The trailer or semi-trailer must not exceed 50% of the towing vehicle’s unladen mass: the comparison is not the trailer’s unladen mass against the motorcycle’s total mass. The generic speed limit for these vehicles under Article 48 must also be reduced by 10%, with any lower limits respected, and no people may ride in the trailer. Urban roads are governed by the corresponding ordinances.
