Guys, Is it safe to tow a teener with a two wheel dolly? If so do the front wheels go on the dolly or do you tow backward? 'preciate the help.

I've flat towed (Texas to California and back) several times, and also towed with a dolly. I'd pick flat towing every time. Those dolly's are WIDE! And not that stable. And some of them (U-Haul) are nasty to load a lowered car or a car with a chin spoiler. Flat towing tucks the car behind you like it's not even there. I'd do 90 miles an hour across the Big Empty without an issue, have to look back to confirm the car was still there. I'd never even consider that with a dolly. Flat towing's cheaper, easier and faster, can't beat it.
