i cant find a link to it, but i'm sure I've read that on an official website.
Whilst there was no mention of "someone sitting in it steering" I appreciate what you are saying my scenario is whilst using a chariot or dolly (both illegal if total towed weight is over 750Kg and is not braked) so when towed the car becomes a trailer and does not require its own MOT, Road Tax or Insurance as these are all the responsibility of the driver of the towing vehicle
