Love the idea of a hitching the van and heading off for the weekend but a bit nervous about towing?
The RACQ Mobility Centre at Mount Cotton runs driver trainer programs, including caravan towing courses.
You’ll get a heap of tips on how to load and hitch correctly. Along with vital advice like checking your van and vehicle are weight compliant.
