Towing Vehicles With RV
I am just wondering if anyone knows whether it's legal to tow a vehicle with expired tabs into another state?

- It depends on the state. Indiana requires any wheels on the road to be on a plated vehicle. Unless you have recovery plates (i.e. a tow truck) current plates are a must. Now, on a trailer, it isn't a vehicle but cargo. The trailer plates are all you need. I just pulled a car home Saturday and didn't know until I got there that it had expired plates and no insurance.

You might be able to put an inexpensive plate on a "car dolly" and then effectively tow the car with expired plates. Often times a non-functioning car/truck will be transported using a car dolly.
Thanks to all.- Thanks to all.
- In tow the vehicle is just like a trailer and if a trailer needs to have a plate the toad will need a plate
- Check with the states you are going to enter. The laws will vary.
Some may require an unlicensed vehicle to be on a flatbed or tow truck. - I believe its technically illegal, but you can probably get a temporary tag from the DMV.
