2.2.18 Trailer Towing Guide
Driving a vehicle with a trailer in tow is vastly different from driving the
same vehicle without a trailer in tow. Acceleration, maneuverability and
braking are all diminished with a trailer in tow. It takes longer to get up
to speed, you need more room to turn and pass, and more distance to stop
when towing a trailer. You will need to spend time adjusting to the
different feel and maneuverability of the tow vehicle with a loaded
trailer. Because of the significant differences in all aspects of
maneuverability when towing a trailer, the hazards and risks of injury are
also much greater than when driving without a trailer. You are
responsible for keeping your vehicle and trailer in control, and for all the
damage that is caused if you lose control of your vehicle and trailer.
As you did when learning to drive an automobile, find an open area with
little or no traffic for your first practice trailering. Of course, before you
start towing the trailer, you must follow all of the instructions for
inspection, testing, loading and coupling. Also, before you start towing,
adjust the mirrors so you can see the trailer as well as the area to the rear
of it.
Drive slowly at first, 5 mph or so, and turn the wheel to get the feel of
how the tow vehicle and trailer combination responds. Next, make some
right and left hand turns. Watch in your side mirrors to see how the
trailer follows the tow vehicle. Turning with a trailer attached requires
more room.
