Sorry but a car on a dolly does not become a trailer and even if the dolly wheels are braked the car's wheels touching the road won't be so it doesn't comply with trailer law. A towing dolly is ONLY legal for recovery from a breakdown or accident to a place of safety and then it is limited to 30mph on single carriageways and 40mph on dual carriageways or motorways. I've researched this lot quite extensively in the past due to lots of motorhomers towing cars behind on A frames which by the way don't co0mply with trailer law either.

The answer to getting your car to IVA is to drive it, trailer it or transport on a flatbed/recovery type truck.
