ABSTRACT:
A vehicle towing apparatus comprised of a rigid metal plate having an elongated midportion, a leading end portion which is bent upwardly relative to the midportion and a trailing end portion which is bent downwardly relative to the midportion, and stiffening webs extending longitudinally along the midportion and the trailing end portion. Apertures are provided in the two end portions to facilitate fastening the towing apparatus to suitable coupling structures on a towing vehicle and a towed vehicle. An alternative embodiment includes a pair of spaced apart upstanding plates or flanges which are secured to the top of the trailing end portion to provide a coupling unit for mating with a similar structure carried by the vehicle to be towed.
