ARE YOU TOWING SAFELY?

Drivers towing a trailer should understand their allowable weight limits and how to correctly and safely load and weigh their trailer, tow vehicle, tow ball and combination. Drivers also need to understand safe towing speeds, stopping distances, fatigue management and how towing overweight or incorrectly loaded trailers can affect the safety of themselves and others while driving.

Transport for NSW will be hosting two FREE workshops on safe towing where you can ask questions and get the answers from the experts.

These interactive 2 hour workshops provide information and demonstrations to support the safe loading and towing of trailers and caravans.

The experts will be able to answer your questions such as What is the GCM? Is the towing capacity of my vehicle able to support my trailer? What are the rules for putting bicycles on the back of my van? How do I know if my trailer is loaded safely?

These FREE 2 hour workshops will be held at South Penrith Neighbourhood Centre on Wednesday 24th September 2025 at 2pm and 5.30pm. Spaces are limited and bookings are essential.

Note: Trailers and vans are not required for these workshops
