Towing Speeds

Has the maximum towing speeds changed?

When I passed my test it was 60mph for a braked trailer and 50 for unbraked?

Been up to York today and Drove home down the A1. Took me all my time to catch several caravans and trailers up and they certainly werent keeping to those limits.

One little trailer had some fence posts and a set of ladders tied on the top, as the ladders bounced the trailer was nearly tipping. Totally nuts people on the roads.
