A safety device that prevents the towing and towed vehicles from separating due to vibration or shock while driving is only recommended, not required.

走行中の振動や衝撃で牽引する車と牽引される車が離れないようにする安全装置は、付けることが望ましいだけで義務ではない。

Explanation

The rule states that suitable safety devices must be fitted so the vehicles do not come apart while driving. It is a required standard, not merely advisable.
