I have never towed anything while driving, but this looks wrong to me

Not safe by any means.
The police will be interested if they come across it.
Ah yes, the lesser greater spotted moron.
Legally, yes, Range Rover Sport could tow that, unfortunately the twit has loaded too far in front of centre of balance of trailer.
Hopefully the Fuzz will spot and advise!
:smackedface:
Would love to see him try turning right at the bottom of a hill!
I assume the trailer has got over run brakes, otherwise there will be loads of skid marks on the road.
and of course, is the van empty or has it a load in it.
really are some total prats on the road these days, but with so few plod around they get away with murder, sometimes literally.

I'd prefer to be watching from the top of the hill, though :smiley-laughing:

Probably not the only place they'd be found :hmmm:
Looking at the original uncropped version of the photo, in your gallery, obviously the outfit is stationary and hasn't travelled in that condition (the trailer ramps are deployed and there is someone adjusting the securing straps at the rear). There is no evidence either way whether any effort was made to balance the load before setting off - the trailer looks to have the hydraulics to do so, and yes it is braked.
Nonetheless, given the markings on the van; if you can provide evidence of attemping to move in that state and confirm the date/time/location I'll escalate with NHS Logistics through the appropriate channels.
I wonder if Range Rovers can adjust the air suspension heights separately for each end? The Range Rover is across a roundabout exit. It may be that the trailer has been loaded while uncoupled, to minimise the time of the blockage, and instead of winding it up on the jockey wheel to couple, they have lowered the air suspension at the rear of the tow vehicle and will raise it under the trailer hitch.
