It depends on the specific situation. If it is a personal trailer, it is not allowed on highways. Legal Basis for Trailers: According to Article 56 of the "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law," 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. Trailers must not carry people; the load capacity of the trailer towed by a truck must not exceed the load capacity of the truck itself. Large and medium-sized passenger cars, low-speed trucks, three-wheeled vehicles, and other motor vehicles must not tow trailers. Regulations for Towing Motor Vehicles: The towed motor vehicle must not carry people other than the driver and must not tow a trailer. The width of the towed motor vehicle must not exceed the width of the towing motor vehicle. When using a soft connection towing device, the distance between the towing vehicle and the towed vehicle must be more than 4 meters and less than 10 meters. Both the towing vehicle and the towed vehicle must turn on the hazard warning flashers. Truck cranes and wheeled special-purpose machinery vehicles must not tow other vehicles. Motorcycles must not tow vehicles or be towed by other vehicles.
