INLAND ONLY If a towing vessel and her tow are severely restricted in their ability to deviate from their course, lights in addition to the towing identification lights must be shown. These additional lights shall be shown if the tow is which of the following?
AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) All of the above.
According to the U.S. Coast Guard regulations, if a towing vessel and her tow are severely restricted in their ability to deviate from their course, additional lights must be shown, regardless of whether the tow is towed astern, pushed ahead, or towed alongside. This requirement is specified in the navigation rules to ensure the visibility and safe passage of the towing vessel and its tow in such restricted situations.
The other options (A, B, and C) are incorrect because the regulation applies to all types of towing configurations, not just one specific arrangement.
