Does Temporary Car Insurance Let Me Tow a Caravan with a Borrowed Car?

Do not assume it does. Towing can be restricted or excluded even when the driver is insured for the car itself.

Answer: Do not assume it does. Towing can be restricted or excluded even when the driver is insured for the car itself.
Your driving licence must allow the combination and the car must be suitable for the caravan’s weight.
Look for explicit towing wording or ask the provider before driving.

Insurance for the towing car is not the same as cover for damage to the caravan.
