Driving

with

a Trailer

Towing a trailer requires a certain amount of experience. Before setting out

for the open road, you’ll want to get to know your rig. Acquaint yourself

with the feel

handling and braking with the added weight

the trailer.

And always keep in mind that the vehicle you are driving is now a good

deal longer and not nearly

responsive

your vehicle is by itself.

Before you start, check the trailer hitch and platform, safety chains,

electrical connector, lights, tires and mirror adjustment. If the trailer has

electric brakes, start your vehicle and trailer moving and then apply the

trailer brake controller by hand to be sure the brakes are working. This lets

you

check your electrical connection at the same time.

During your trip, check occasionally to be sure that the load is secure, and

that the lights and any trailer brakes are still working.
