It's very rare i'm that loaded with weight as the van doesn't like to pull very well and if i do take my digger to a job then i won't have a mower on the van as well. Just used that as an example of what i believed to be the way the towing allowances worked. But i could be wrong so don't use this as evidence in court if you get pulled over by the police.

Yes, but if you havn't taken a towing test then you cannot legally tow more than the maximum gross weight (MGW) of 750 kg
I am unsure of the penalty if you get caught though...
