If the caravan or trailer was registered after June 30, 1990 and its weight (which is known as gross trailer mass and abbreviated as GTM) exceeds 750 kilograms but is less than two tonnes, it should have an efficient braking system.
On the other hand, if the gross trailer mass of the trailer or the caravan exceeds two tonnes, the braking system can either be an overrun system or it can be one which can be operated from the driver's seat.
However there are fewer trailers and caravans whose gross trailer mass is more than two tonnes which have overrun brakes. The brakes of two-tonne-plus trailers or caravans are usually operated from the seat of the driver. They remain applied automatically for a duration of about fifteen minutes in the event of an accidental break-away.

What an incredibly poor answer to "HOW" do the brakes work on a caravan! This answer says nothing at all.
I agree, extreemly poor answer. I would like to know what happens when you slap the car into reverse and start going backwards. What stops the brakes coming on and how does one alter the mechanism, or should I say servis it. Andy.
I have a braked Trailer and when I reverse the car, the connecting part moves backward through a rubber sleeve and apples the brake by way of a fulcrum operation similar and connected to the handbrake mechanism. Great if you want to stop sliding backward, but not discovered how to adjust the mechanism, or a lever to stop the brake applying when you WANT TO REVERSE!!
