You answered correctly. When towing a car with a breakdown, you need to know that if the engine is not running, the brake booster and power steering do not work. This means you have to press the brake pedal much harder to stop the car. Also, it's safest to use a towing bar if possible, as it gives the driver more control and prevents the towed vehicle from crashing into the towing car. The rear fog lights should not be turned on during towing—they are not meant for this situation and can confuse other drivers. Remember these points for similar questions in the future.
