Question: are brakes required on a tow dolly?
Answer: If you will never tow anything on your towdolly then you will not need brakes, but if you load your tow dolly and meet or exceed the 3000 GVWR mark then brakes are required in all 50 states. 9 out of 10 dollies sold have brakes. ... Idler ( no brakes ) tow dollies are obsolete.
