Are there laws preventing such trailers from being used on the road?

Honestly push trailers are a bad idea
unless these are hitch only with no ball??(bad idea to have a powered device on a pivot point) because of torque steer.
you may also need a independent rear suspension.
a solid rear axle, so when the left tire would bounce on a bump the right tire would tilt out and ride along its edge.
that could be a issue with bumps in the road and cause the torque steer
If you have like a SUV
asymmetrical AWD system would do
