Which safety practice should always be followed when towing?

Checking weather conditions
Publicizing weight limits
Regularly monitoring road signs
Ensuring equipment is within safe limits

The correct answer is: Ensuring equipment is within safe limits

Ensuring equipment is within safe limits is crucial for safe towing practices. This includes verifying that the tow truck and its components, such as the tow hitch, chains, and lights, are designed to properly handle the weight and type of the vehicle being towed. Using equipment that is not rated for the load can lead to failures, which could result in accidents, property damage, or injuries. By adhering to the specifications and recommendations provided by manufacturers, operators ensure the safety of themselves, other road users, and the vehicle being towed. It is a fundamental aspect of maintaining operational integrity and preventing incidents on the road.
