TOWING
speed. It is both courteous and sensible to signal, pull onto the shoulder, and let
them pass. Your trailer is designed to be towed easily at any legal speed, so if you
are not careful you may be inclined to forget it is there.
Passing
ON FREEWAYS OR EXPRESSWAYS try to pick the lane you want and stay in it.
Always maintain plenty of space between you and the car ahead, at least the length
of the tow vehicle plus trailer for every ten miles per hour. Remember that in order to
pass another vehicle you will need longer to accelerate. You must also allow for the
length of the trailer when returning to the right hand lane.
Tracking
OBSERVE THAT THE TRACKS MADE BY THE TRAILER WHEELS ARE DISTINCTLY
DIFFERENT FROM THOSE MADE BY THE TOW VEHICLE. Studying this will make it
easier for you to correct mistakes. Truck or trailer type fender or door grip rear view
mirrors are a must for maximum visibility and in most states the law requires them.
