Depends on the state. Hawaii? Yes! Aloha. Answer 2 Varies from state to state. Typically you can tow anything that your license class will allow. Higher license classes allow for more towing capability obviously. Also, you are required to "properly secure" all connections prior to departure and not tow anything that exceeds what your own car can handle. Also, you are not to tow anything so heavy that it can interfere with the handling of the car that is doing the towing.

Yes
No.
With a tow truck and a license for towing =D
It is illegal for a tow truck to tow your car while someone still present in the vehicle.
Sure can. Look at those big RV's on the road ... most are pulling a car using a tow bar.
No, as long as you leave the keys with the car and let us know how you are paying, you do not need to be with the vehicle to get a tow.
If they are legally repossessing it, it is their truck and they can do what they want with it.

You trade it in for a heavier, stronger vehicle. Legally, what's required is that the tow vehicle has a certain size/weight when compared to what's being towed. So if you want to haul heavier gear legally you need a heavier vehicle
If you do something making your car liable to be towed, it can legally be towed the moment you're in violation, whether parking in a prohibited area, being on a public roadway with expired tags, whatever. Either the police can initiate the tow, or a private party can initiate the tow to have your vehicle removed from their property.
No, not if you are towing a vehicle with a tow rope. If the tow car loses traction it could cause both cars to veer of the road. If the towed vehicle is unable to stop, it could impact the tow vehicle. Either situation is bad, just shell out the money and pay a professional tow truck.
yes
The same way you'd tow any other car. The handicap designation does not affect the mechanics of a car.Added: If you are asking about re-possessing a handicapped designated vehicle, the answer is yes.As long as the legally required re-possession paperwork is in order there is no prohibition against it.
