Towing Issues: Towing a vehicle without license plate, safety chains, auto trailer


Question
I bought a new vehicle and transferred the license plate from old car to new car.  I want to tow the old vehicle to Orlando FL on a auto trailer which I have.  I live in Jacksonville, FL.  Can I legally tow the vehicle if there is no license plate on the towed vehicle.  The trailer has a valid license plate.

Answer
Once the vehicle is on the car trailer it's considered cargo. It would be a different story if it wasn't your vehicle and for hire. Since it is your vehicle/cargo and the trailer and tow vehicle are proper licensed, insured and registered there will be no problmes with the transport. Make sure you use safety chains and tie down and four corners.
