Yes, it is not illegal. Here is relevant information: Towing regulations: According to Article 56 of the "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China," motor vehicles towing trailers must comply with the following provisions: trucks, semi-trailer tractors, and tractors are only allowed to tow one trailer. The lighting signals, brakes, connections, and safety protection devices of the trailer must comply with national standards; small passenger cars are only allowed to tow travel trailers or trailers with a total mass of less than 700 kilograms. Precautions: Warning signs should be placed at least 150 meters away from the direction of oncoming traffic for the broken-down vehicle. Passengers should quickly move to the right shoulder or emergency lane and promptly call the police. If a motor vehicle breaks down or is involved in a traffic accident on the highway and cannot be driven normally, it should be towed or pulled by a rescue vehicle or a wrecker.
