Question Falcons towing Falcons - Legalities

Hi all

As the headline reads I am curious about such sights.

I regularly see Falcons (An Commodores) towing similar weighted vehicles on car trailers. Some of these tow cars are only fitted with 1600kg tow bars. Even if they were fitted with the 2300kg tow bars surely they still are overloaded.

Surely this is illegal and quite dangerous.

So what are peoples thoughts on this here? I ask as I was considering buying an AU Falcon/Fairmont for such use but don't want to break the law.

Any input must appreciated :-)
